Just sell it, it won't help your install anyways.

I agree, just sell it and go buy a second battery or a better alternator, caps just strain your alternator.

x1,000 on the battery man, most of us have made the cap mistake starting out... Hell, one guy in my car club was looking for a "compasiter" so I dug one up I had laying around and made a quick 10 bucks off of it :shrug:

No shame in my game bro-ham ;)

Well on a side note the mtc thunder elite 1501d has a dedicated spot to hook up a cap, I have a optima yellow top a 180 amp excessive alt and upgraded big 3 with 1/0 ga
