Default Adding caps to esc???

I have heard of adding caps to ESC to improve things, since I am new to EP boats I don't know what this means?

Do you solder them across the battery leads going into the ESC from the battery or do you replace the caps on the ESC with bigger ones?

I have read that if the ESC overheats the caps can puff and need replaced.

I know there are some simple rules about adding caps in series vs parallel.

I will be working on a Proboat Stiletto, I don't expect to change much but I will be changing the battery connections to 6 mm bullets.

Thanks for any Help!
