The best way to fix is a bigger alternator and second battery. You can add a capacitor but its just a band aid fix.

What are you running... I have two 12's and a amp that will run you out of the car and I dont have any problem like that.

Nice box...... what name amp do you have ? I would try using a nice
amp like a 450-500w kicker amp thats all that sub needs to rock...and no light dimming...
You also might try moving the ground, bigger Gauge wire for your power/ground you never know some times that helps...
Heres a link that might help they have some nice amps

POsted this in another location but this is proto 1 for me. Proto 2 will be a fiberglassed Chevy emblem. with red light underneath. And to answer question in advance its a 12 inch power accustic and a 1200watt amp some brand. Its not really a flush mount i still have the spare tire and the sub floor of the cargo hold or whatever you call the bit above the spare tire. Its actually built as a shelve so i can raise it to the upper holders. I will post more pics later
