Connect the cap as shown in the diagram above.  Play your system for a few days and notice how much it helps.  Then check out my picture again, then see if you can figure it out.

That is great. I am about to hook mine up with the first recommended method. I have mine with 4G and a fuse link 100A abt 6" from the battery, grounded with 4G and my amps poweRED / grounded to the cap. 4G also. It drains my battery every cpl days if I don't use the vehicle.
