the battery is less important than the alternator. you could run your entire car without a battery as long as its already running with the alternator going. your battery is just there to store extra power if its needed but not something you should rely on to make up for your alternator being too weak.

if you are running 1000rms you will need an alternator that is at least 100 amps to even come close to keeping up with your electrical draw without including bright lights, a/c, any other secondary electricals.

Well im driving vw golf 3 as u can c on sig.. doesnt even have el windows... its old shit dont think it draw that much for the car itself.. but i do understand what ur saying bout alt beeing important... i dont have dimming or any big audible changes like its running now and i will do big 3 be4 i install the cap.. i will upgrade alt later on i just got this cap for free... cant c link on phone but will check it later. Thx... sny got link on how to wire cap with 2 amps...?

unless they are right beside each other you are going to have to pick one. if they are wired close to each other you will need to run wiring from the capacitor to both amps if you don't have a distribution block.

2 different wires coming off the capacitor in case i said it confusing lol.

They are mounted 2 inches from eachother.. ill just buy a block if i will need one... i guess my monoblock benefits most from it but if it helps my 4chan too there is no reason not to wire both... what about those fuses the other dude talked about..?

all of your power wires will have fuseblocks with them. those are the fuses he was talking about.

if you haven't gotten any wiring yet you will need to get

a 50ft roll of zero gauge wire(this will be the main wire that will be the input for the distribution block and split into your two amplifiers wiring. you will also use this for your big 3 upgrade. knukonceptz has good wire for this.
distribution block that will input zero gauge and output the largest wire sizes your amplifiers can use.
enough of the smaller wiring to wire both amps power and ground from the distribution block each amp will need around 3ft of power wire and 3ft of ground wire.
high current battery terminals

im pretty sure the cable from my bat to dist block is 2 awg, and its from RF so i asume its top quality.

and if the cap is before the dist block i wont need a new one. atm its going bat--dist--< amps, if its going bat--cap--dist--< amps i can just use my current one, still doesnt have a clue where on my current wiring the cap will be mounted

if it is like this all i will need is some 0 awg to run from ground to cap and for the big 3

is this totally wrong ?

Ground it out. Run a wire to a splitter then two wires from the splitter to each amp. Done

thats fine.

the 2 gauge wire will be fine for a main wire.

i wasn't sure what all you had already so i just posted a full list if you hadn't bought anything yet.

Ye thats nice... thx alot

dont forget to run seperate grounds and run rca's away from any other wiring.
its also optional but recommended to run fuses between the cap or extra battery(s) and the amps.
Ive seen some built integrated as fuse bank/ distribution block.
