Default Capacitor for my Setup?

Here is what I will be installing:

2 10" Type R subs in stealth boxes
Type R components in the doors and coaxials in the sails
JL J2 1000WRMS@ 1 Ohm stable Mono amp for the subs
J2 320 4 Channel (4x60RMS @ 4 ohm) to run the speakers.

A 2 farad cap should be plenty right? I was looking at this one http://www.buy.com/prod/power-acoust...207503021.html


There all gonna be about the same right? Would I benifit from a different one and why? Also, with this setup I shouldnt have any problems with the stock charging system right? I am not gonna have it cranked up all the time anyway.... Thanks!

Caps are COMPLETELY useless. Its actually harder on your electrical system. Its a waste of money. You do not need one. Do the "Big 3" and that will be more than enough.
