Definitly DONT waste your money on a cap! Caps are a bandaid solution at best. The 370Z has a very hefty alternator, Its 150AMPS!! the largest I have ever seen in a compact car. You can exceed 1000watts rms but you really should get a Stinger or Oddyesse Dry cell battery if you want any kind of life out of the battery if you are pushing this kind of power.

The battery is the only weak link here in the 370Z.
