    Im about to start running some new 2/0. I need to break down and buy one of the spl meters. Saves a hell of a lot of time running down from running to my buddies shop to put it on the term lab. Ill be going in a week or so to see what numbers ive got after the electrical upgrades and go from there

    Running wire is my least favorite part of building.  Upgrades looking good though.

    Yea thats what always kept me away from it. Ive sat in a few sq cars and dont get me wrong. Absolutely amazing.  Ive had good sounding setups over the years but nothing that nature. The problem is i never really had a vehicle to dedicate to one and probably never will. I work too much to get as serious as id like to. Just brutality in a daily is all i need. And theres only a handful of competitions here in ohio that i know of. Altho me and a couple of my buddies are tossing around the idea of starting up our own. We all help out each other and will continue to down the road.

    Where at in ohio?  Frogcase2002 and I are from the same general area in ohio. Jay-C76 is also in ohio.

    Thanks guys, i went with 4k to make sure the sub was getting what it needed. Didnt want the amp to be maxed out either. I think the 4k should be a good upgrade from the 2.5k.

    Feed it good power and any zcon of any size will handle 4k all day...

    Badass man . Always like seeing zcon builds

    HUGE zcon fan here... Honestly I'd go zcon before evil.  If you know the "con" line from ssa... Zcon is the pinnacle... Evil is a whole different critter. Either way FUCK YEAH SSA!

    Factory life has become such. My life and work standards are viewed as out dated. My expectations of people are unattainable in today's world inside and outside of work. Hell I can take a guy from WV who has no experience other than hunting and breeding and teach him how to out perform ( trouble shoot and repairs) other mechanics that have been there for 10+ years. I often get criticized for being way too aggressive for today's people. Hell I am only 42 and I can not fathom what another 5 years will bring. 

    The principals I raised my kids on are even out dared. I taught them to take pride in everything thing they do and most importantly pay yourself. Their friends think I am a strict parent because their raising was very different.

    I guess what I am getting at is society is in a rapid decline with all the bullshit that has been allowed.

    I agree with everything you said.  I'm in the exact situation you are in.

    I didn't go with a level 4' over evil,  I went with 2 lvl 4's over 1 12" evil.  I got them both for the same price as what one evil would have costed. That and I didn't want to wait. I waited months to get my sundowns and hated it. Now if I wasn't in a hurry and could have got a high output alt, yea I would have tried the evils. I'm still going to run evil mids and highs. And maybe later on when I get a SUV or something, I still would love to try them.  

    What i was reading you saying is that you didn't go evils because you couldn't hit them with max rms.  Also there is nothing wrong with dc audio they make fine products.  I wouldn't be surprised if that 1 12 evil hit almost as hard as those 2 dc subs.  I went from a single 12 zcon to 2 12 ethos.  While both ethos were louder than the zcon it honestly wasn't by much... Surely not double.  So yeah maybe i misunderstood your original post.

    And I'm not bad mouthing the evil either hell it was my first choice I just didn't think I could run enough wattage to do it justice. And it's not like any of these car subs are efficient any ways they all need a shit ton of power to reach there full potential. Also the DC 2k is rated at 90% efficient so I should be good with a stock alt and a battery bank at 4ohm for break in. 

    I don't understand the logic of going with the lvl4 over the evil?  You don't have enough power to run a evil?   There's no rules saying you have to hit with max rms?  I'm positive a evil will slam on 2k. Maybe I'm atupid and didn't understand what you meant but i would of went ssa over dc all day everyday if funds allowed.
