  1. Looks pretty nice. Did you mod it all yourself?

    After seeing that blue it makes me miss my Evo.

    Thanks! All the modding done by myself and friends! As far as the Forge unit being unreliable, I have not read that anywhere. They say the stock BPV is good up to around 20psi, and this Forge unit is rated up to 35psi I believe. The WRX, no matter what, will ever see that kind of pressure.


  2. Needs some forced induction sir. ;):morepower1:

    Ah, just kidding around, beautiful car, very clean and very jealous.

    VF52 turbo! lol The Ranger was nice, and I do miss it, but I'm young, single, and I figure if I'm going to have a car like this, now is the time. After the tune, done by Nate Silveri of TPG Tuning, I'm seeing 16.5psi of boost.


  3. Hi everyone! I've been out of "the game" for a little while and figured I'd stop in and say hi and explain why! The red flaps and wheels are a winter setup, don't worry! Car put down 250hp on a Mustang Dyno, which is equivalent to 305hp on a Dyno Jet.

  4. UPDATE: I have a Sundown SAX50.4 and 100.2 for sale also now! $175 + shipping each!

    If anybody really needs pictures, I can take some. I can assure you these things are basically brand new.


  5. im interested in some opinions on the best option for 7000 rms, looking for a good balance of power requirement and price, any other suggestions welcome, this is what i have come up with so far...

    stetsom 7k - 1700

    dual sundown 3500's - 2000

    american bass vfl 500.1 - 1600

    the american bass is only a good choice if ur running something like 16 or 18 volts. id say the sundowns. i tried to buy a stetsom about a month ago and had to jump through hoops just to talk to someone. i had 2 different numbers i was a rep and 1 was a number he told me to call. ive had good luck with the 8 ive had

    plus if u have the voltage the sundowns put out lots more

    Don't get me wrong, I love my Sundown amps, and have no desire to switch brands...but what did your video prove?


  6. Wiring series or parallel is going to give you a different load on your amplifier. If you have a 1 ohm load, your amplifier is able to put out more power due to a lower resistance. No pro's or con's for the actual wiring, just gives you options on how you can hook them up.


  7. Thanks everyone! Hopefully in a few weeks I'll be ordering my front stage speakers. The amp rack is ALMOST the color of my truck. But I'm happy with it for mixing my own paint by eye. :)

    Okay, a few weeks turned into a few months. I found some Peerless HDS tweeters used on here. So instead of the ScanSpeak HDS, I'll just have the Peerless name on them. I also ordered my Seas ER18RNX's mids!

    Everything should be here by next weekend, so look for updates then!


  8. I had that done in a paint booth with automotive grade paint. It turned out great, but at a cost. Rattle can is your only option really, as roll on paint won't give you what you want. Rattle can is still going to be really tough. You get what you pay for.


  9. If you're using MDF, it's a pain. Trust me.

    First, it needs to be ABSOLUTELY flawless. The slightest mark in the wood ANYWHERE is going to show up in gloss paint. Expect to have a ton of coats on it. I had my buddy paint a HT enclosure for me with automotive grade paint and primer. It took 8 coats of primer before it was ready for paint. Is this the look you're going for?:
