The more watts you swing, the more people you bring. BREAK!

Considering the size of that thing, you will be very lucky if -anyone- will bother picking the pieces out of you. That's not meant to be pesimistic.

I have found a BIG second battery works A LOT better. Big wire, Big connectors, and Big fuse holder ECT. I tried two caps to help power the stereo in my Extended Cab Ram, worked ok for the first bass note, past that not a whole lot of difference. More the 3k watts total power supplied to: two 15's, one jet port 12, two tens, two 6x9, two horns, and two mids. I added a second battery and HOLY smokes!!! That was the ticket there boy!!
I never really noticed any difference with my 6 pill after the cap install but, I did after the second battery install. The voltage and amp gauge didn't dive near as much!!! I was able to drive the amp much better.
I would go with an extra battery before even thinking about a cap.

Mine has some really pretty flashy blue leds and a digital gauge I can watch how fast my voltage drops.
