If you've got one set of rca's into the amp then set it to 2ch mode. If 2 sets then set it at 4ch mode. Like Dukk stated the mode selecter switch is only for the amount of signal entering the amp (allows you to use all four ch of the amp even if you only have one set of rca's enterign the amp).
If you're just running the one amp then upgrading the wiring under the hood (the big 3) and adding a cap will do nothing sonically for you.
What speakers are you running on the amp? I'll bet my paycheck that you've got your settings wrong somewhere (and a quick guess would be that you're using one set of rca's from your HU and it's a set that has a HP filter on it from the HU which is why you're not getting any bass).

Morel Tempo 6.5 in the front, On high pass filter. Set at 80hz on the deck and close to it on the amp.
80hz for the sub low pass on the amp for the woofer and on the deck.
RCA's for the front, And for the nonfader.
I will re-check the settings tomorrow.
