no, you do not need a new battery, however a new battery would stop dimming and increase performance of your system with the car off... best battery to get is a optima yellow top run u close to $150 bucks though

yeah head light will most likely dim. my first rig was small fries and they still dimmed.
that dimming is so annoying. i dont even bump at night cuz of it. prolly looks ghetto rollin threw town bumpin and your headlights dimm down with every bass hit.

unless its 3 farads or more a sub its not gonna do anything, and even with a big cap they are still gonna dim just not as much, all it does is slow down the dimming by .1 of a second
