ok im debating on getting either a 5 farad cap from my friend for $100 or a 250 amp alternator...what would benefit me more?

 

hands down the alt. a cap is just a bandaid. the alt will give you the power you need now and prepare for when you need more later.

 

def. a better alt. It will help alot more than the cap. like boom said a cap is just a bandaid.

 

yea i talked to my cousin who does car audio and he said to do the alt. as well. So i think im going to go with a 250 amp alt. Thanks guys

 

alt for the win

 

about how much does it cost for a new alt?

 

the 250 i priced cost $360...i also priced a 300 amp and that was $470. check out http://www.excessiveamperage.com/

 

ok thanks

 

go with a high output alt. before any thing u can't go wrong and remember that if u choose the cap u will need 1 farad for every 1000 watts u are pushing![sm=trust_me.gif]
