Hey guys, I had a few questions. I was looking at getting some Audiobahn componets for my car(I have a Honda Accord and also I know this forum is for nova's, but I need help).

Alright, I was looking at getting this amp (http://www.cardomain.com/item/ABNA8000T), one of these subs (http://www.cardomain.com/item/ABNALUM10N), and this capacitor (http://cgi.ebay.com/Audiobahn-ACAP4P-1-Farad-Digital-Capacitor-CHROME-CAP_W0QQitemZ9711851066QQcategoryZ75387QQssPageNam eZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem). I currently have a Pioneer HU. I know that if I get that sub and amp, it will be puting out 3 ohm's if I wire it like this (http://www.cardomain.com/shop/wooferwizard.pl?num_of_subs=1&impedance_of_subs=6ohm_dvc&x=157&y=6).

So my question is will it be running at 600 watt's wired that way?

Also will this system hit hard? I'm hoping to annoy people and go deaf(not really) :D

And will that capacitor be enough to power the amp?

One more, what would be the best box? I don't know if I should get one with the least amount of cubic feet of air or one with the most. I know I could make my own but I don't really have the time to make one.

Thanks for any and all help.

If you're battery and cabling are good enough, you shouldn't need a capacitor, Box size depends on how you want it to sound, tight and punchy means a small box, baggy and low, long ntes means larger, ported box.

Well with the system I have right now, 2 15" Audiobahn woofers and a Legacy 240 watt (peak) amp, and when I'm playing music and I mostly listen to rap, the HU kinda of dims with the music. So then would I need the cap? My car came with an amp kit already installed. I'm not to sure what guage the wire is (it's pretty thick) but I'll take a guess and say around 8 or 6. But I mostly listen to rap, so I should go for a ported box then right?
