i've heard a lot of ppl say that UDP's wont cause charging issues but not of those ppl have sound systems. i have a in dash tv, 2 12' subs, a 1000 watt amp and a 600 watt amp. but i also have a optima yellow top battey do you guys think i'll have charging probs?

 

With or without the UDPs, you should have problems. Do you?

If you have the Big 3 upgraded along with a HO alt, you shouldn't have a problem.

 

I seen someone ask about that one other time on here and people said as long as you got a Cap to make up for the little loss of extra charge then you'll be alright.

 

I get shouted at every time this topic **** up... For the hp gains, i think they are a waste of money an youre only askin for problems when you use em.... just my humble opinion... *puts fire suit on*....

 

i just bought a cap havent put it in yet but do you reallly think it will help

 

Bring the cap back if you can. It's a gimmick. It DOES work, but it's not needed at all. If you upgrade your big 3 wires (google Big 3 wires/audio, whatever), it has the same effect. Costs peanuts to upgrade, all you're doing is replacing the factory wires with a thicker guage.

in my old car i tried the wire upgrade and i ended up getting a cap anyway it helps a lot with the system when you're running a lot of power

 

Well a cap might still be good for you. You've got alot more power than I used to run. I had a 1200 amp hooked up to a 15", and small 50w x 2 for the components, and I had my rear speakers taken out. My lights dimmed only a little, but it drained out my battery once. Had to call AAA. People told me to get a cap, and I did the 3, never had the problem. I was thinking of getting a HO alt. Luckily I didn't cause now I've got the Stang.
