I use a 1.2 Farad Cap with 4ga for my 4 R type's and i have no quams. i also have my 4ch amp hooked up to it. she does just fine. the popular opinon is that a cap is useless and it would be wiser to invest in a HO Alt. But when i bought the cap and put it in my 91 Caravan i noticed a huge difference, Case in point my Dimming Stopped.

Long story short i dont think you'll even need a Cap.

Hope that helps, Best of luck
