It is commonly excepted to install the cap as close as possible to the amp. make sure you charge it before connecting it, and wire it correctly.

BTW how will i charge it.

The same way its instruction manual tells you - usually through a light bulb if it's needed (typically 5-10W, but anything from headlights or less are ok; the smaller means longer charging time).

For what it's worth... mp3car/car-audio/140398-right-place-capacitor - not that the discussion is out of hand - there is only one that may think so.

Usually your capacitor comes with a small resistor to charge and discharge your capacitor.
