Still not had chance to sort it yet, been far too busy with work and uni. Gonna hopefully run a new 4 gauage ground from the battery to the chassis. Then running another 4 gauge from the alternator to the battery and going to run a new fresh 4 gauge hopefully to the boot into a dizzy and run all my amps. | |

i doubt it, dimming lights is usually caused by lack of initial power anyway, so a cap could make it even worse | |

if you are draining quite alot of power to dim headlights maybe a power cap might help? | |

Read above posts... have you upgraded power from Alternator to battery... battery is just a through pass and if you are dragging current out of the battery using a 4 gauge wire but the wire from the alternator to battery that is replacing the charge is only 8 gauge you can see what will happen | |

Dont think the belt is loose because I'm thinking along the lines that I would get some slipping noises when in wet weather and putting the system through its paces. | |

but have you uprated the ground on the car? uve got all these beefy positive cables going everywhere, but have you made the chassis ground bigger ect? | |

I currently have a 4 gauge running from the battery to a distribution block behind the dash, from there I have 2 8 gauage cables, 1 to the amp and 1 to the head unit. Then I have 8 gauge running from the amp to the neg terminal. | |

First point of call in this situation is to uprate the 'BIG' 3.... | |

Low Battery power, or Alternator i think i remember someone saying the other day for something similar. | |
