    Ideally I'm looking at 2 amps, one for the fronts, one for the subs, 2 subs, capacitor, and some accessories. Possibly a crossover in the future.

    I have that same setup except only 1 sub and no capacitor.

    From my understanding, Capacitors really aren't needed anymore, especially if you have the towing package with the 135A alternator. Also, most new amps have a crossover builtin. I know my JL amp did.

    I can understand the capacitor not needed in a truck with a larger alternator, I had one in my old car (Grand Prix). It was quite loud and clean with very little light dimming.

    Caps can be helpful if your power wire is a little undersized as well.

    Yeah, same here. I had a Honda CRX and definitely needed the 1F capacitor to help out. The truck has no issues.

    I prefer to go overboard on the power wires.

    It had no back seat so there was LOTS of room for me. That car was Fucking awesome. I want it back. If I had the option now, i would have never sold it for $1300.

    :eek:

    Well if this install does happen, I'll leave space for cap. It's nice to have from experience. Then again I was running 2 12's in the grand prix lol :cool: with a Clarion head unit 6v pre amp out....it was so clear.

    Then go play some billiards in the commons. I used to do that to pass the time between classes.
