Had a blast. Was hot as shit, and errrryone got burnt to shit,... but, fun was had by all. Burb ran better than it ever has in every way. Did all events (Psyclone, DB drag (meh) and bass race 599) First in all. Scores where hurt bad on our 30s runs by the hole, but, it did a new high on the burp (meh) , even a few clicks down, ... we couldnt be happier with how its running. On our 30s runs, the engine ran great set at 2k rev....and didnt sound like it was gonna toss a rod out the block at the end. Couldnt be happier with how its all performing, such a good feeling after all the work. Thanks for the look, hope to meet/see some of you in the lanes some day. My favorite thing about it all. Get out, be safe, and just have a damn good time. Enjoy

I think so to. My buddy Wyatt does the vids for us,... we have zero clue how to do that stuff lol. But ya, he does a great job on em. Appreciate the love home boy. We are sooo confident in it now. Time to lean on it hard.....

Thanks guys.... makes my cold, dead, black heart feel good FINALLY having this turd close to how we want it. Feels damn good. Randal ? Da fuq dude,.... get back in it bro. Have some fun dude,.... id really like to meet ya, and shake your hand dude... what is stoppin ya my man !?!? Get on it !!!

Also, just wanna add, the pic with the trophies and boards, thats HALF the wiring, .... 3 are flipped toward the drivers side to...... EVERY GOD DAMN hot fused, AT PROPER length. No cheating, no bullshit,.... legal as fuck. proud as fuck. As much wire you see on the pass side, there is as much on the driver side. Was NOT fun. But, it looks good. The RCA's need some love, but, that aint no thang. We really need to run new ones front to rear, and re run errrrything nice and pretty,.. but, its up, and playing, ... playing all day, with no issues, and we couldnt be happier.

3 firsts, a new personal high on burp, 30s scores where all down, due to the windshield peacing out on us. Mic fell off, (we taped the fuck outta it first, trust me) 4 times. Anyway, no big deal. 1st in psyclone, 1st in super street 5plus, and again, the only ones to 599. So a first there. Its so much more brutal. We are very happy. The boards run wicked cool, make more power, much easier. Never seen the motor run as good as it did on the long runs. Before, it would almost kill the damn thing, but its all coming together now That ride home tho........

We got it playing about 11 or so last night. Just about to leave for the show. I'll post some shiz soon. But it's up and playing and so far, we happy.

Thanks all. Appreciate it. We are NOT good at finish work, but, he wrapped the fuck outta it all imho, and i think it looks dope. Hes really spreading his skills. We have the lay out figured, and wiring is rolling

First 3x is now 7 days away. The rear is looking great, best ever actually. Fun time is now amps and wiring a coming. (well probably have about 4 seconds of testing on it before the show, but meh,.... were really solid on points from finals last year, so, all shows will be "test/tune" time for us through out the season. Fug it.....

Yup. They are all getting the rad Ti basket. Larger landing for larger spider, all the good stuff. You heard correct, they are already selling them.

They treat me great. Answer my phone calls, texts, and emails. Try this one if you haven't. Support@ficaraudio.com You should get a reply with in 24 hours. Maybe check your junk folder also.

" I used to pay attention to SQ, but I'm noticing I must be more of an SPL type of guy, and don't really care too much for SQ as much as I thought I did" Well, using the PWX's and FT1's,... your quote is dead bang. I couldnt stand my Ft1's, and have NEVER heard a rig with the pwxs play worth a damn. (they are popular around here local with the kids) They dont dig down at all. Like, zero mid range, let alone ANY mid bass. Just get loud as fuck. Good luck with em. I had a more spl oriented set up also, but was able to get my door drivers down to a 63hz cut off, on a 12db slope. They were 4- 8" seleniums, per door, ... needed processing through out the pass band to even get them to sound "decent". And again, the FT1's (2 per door) where complete garbage. Just my .02/opinion. edit- I hope that didn't come off like I was completely shitting on your gear. It will perform and do what you need. What one person thinks sounds "ok",.. sounds like complete turd to another. And I didn't mean to come off like a cock. Best luck with everything.

Very cool. Man, i wanted to see the cases lol. I understand,.... ill be patient lol. Good stuff guys.

I havent seen an enclosure gain from 45's in years. Pointless and a waste of time imho. If your competing, i would test without and with,...... but, i have never seen a gain using them. Ever. Bracing, ... im a fan of. 45's, i wouldnt even put a second thought in them, if it was me.

Ive ran both. Both in the 15 and 12 inch sizes. Youll be happy with the EVIL. Its no joke. The Evil has WAY more motor force than the SP4 v1 and v2. Great driver, both are, but youll really like the evil. The EVIL 12 with a legit 10" spider, sexy Ti basket (my favorite basket), big, bullet proof 4'' coil,... ya dude, not many on the planet with love like that. Youll dig. I just played around with some 12" EVILS, and SP4 v1's, (identical to the v2 T/S wise) and then ran 2 12" team fi 12's for a season in a trunk build. All on a Ampere Audio TFHE 9.0. Both the evil and team where my favorite 12 ive ever ran. And ive ran a couple, from old school to these. I didnt get much play time with the evil (or sp4) but, trust me, its a fine fine driver. Youll dig. Keep us up to date on progress.

We spent 2 days pulling all the old shit,.. what a pain. Then spent another 2, just measuring, planning, scratching our heads. If we didn't have to fuse... fuck. But, we lost the world title by 3 points last season. Was the rta portion. You can NOT give up 10 points on anything. Install shit is as important as being loud. Such a pain in the ass... worse part of it TBH. Rules have changed for rta this year. All of last year every single competitor was bitchin and moaning (including us) about a rta rule, that, when running white noise, you must maintain plus 100db. You had to crank it up soooo high for the meter to register. Our tweets where seriously screaming!!! After wayne/judge panel listened to us all, they dropped that 10, to 90db. We changed from the ampere dsp, installed and tested a bit 10. We did back to back to back 100s (perfect) rta runs. So, we have that down. Load the file, hit play and sit back with a beer and post 100/100. Like I said, we lost the world title, by 3 points on this portion. So, that is a improvement right there. I won't get into our issues we had with our amps,.. fuck excuses, but, our low and loud portion WILL increase this season. I guarantee it appreciate the support and looks.

I haven't "heard" ours yet. I have heard some out of state builds running them. They seem very reliable. Put out some good power. At 18volt, they better. A "4k" board with trip inputs/grounds,... yes please. They are thick and heavy. All of which is neat, but not a breeze to install 6 of them. 36 runs, half that MUST be fused for the ORG we run, is proving to be a bitch, and look decent. How do we have a pucking suburban and not have room lol. But, we'll get it. We wired up worse before stay tuned for fun stuff coming it better 599 3 times, and then be up there with the car off, or I'm gonna burn it to the ground. Thanks for looking all. Appreciate the love.

Thanks all.... i think we have a legit plan. Anyway..... Actually gained a bit more room. The secondary HU, audison bit 10, 4 channels, fans, AC ducts, and volt meters will all get back in there also. Hope everyone that goes to shows, has a blast. Good luck, and enjoy yourselves. Thanks for lookin. KB

Welcome to the forum. Ask away, dont be shy. We are all here to help, and learn. One of the best parts of this audio habit/addiction we all have. Cheers.

Cheers and welcome. Loved my SP4's when i had them. Competed with them for 3 and a half seasons. Loved them. Build looks great.

I highly doubt you would hardly notice.

Had breakfast with Kenny this morning. Brought one of the 6 boards for me to dork out on. Man ohhhh man, do i LOVE the fit and finish on these. They feel uber well built. Heavy as shit. So, with out even having them hooked up yet, i will say, i dig the way they look and feel. They just feel built. If that makes any sense. Anyway,.... lets try and get loud finally. I know it looks rough. Trust me, i know lol. But..... trying to figure out 18 FUSED runs,...... ugh... (install points for the ORG we run in, require proper fuses and length on said run). So, trying to figure out each fused run, on each amp, is proving a bit of a head scratcher....but.... we have a idea or 4. Hold tight for more. Trust me, its coming. Thanks for looking

270 alt made by who ? Is this at idle? id expect, or does it do it at rev? Who made the alt? And be honest please. What do you see when you rev? 10v? jesus.... thats horrible. Id hate it anyway....

love it jeff...... i wanna see that thing do some real damage, make some people cry this season Cheers and good luck my friend. We will meet one day....... count on it.

So,.. new season is upon us. Only change we are going to make is amplifiers and wire. The ampere's all sold, and new crossfire 4ks where chosen. They do 18v, stable at .5, all that shit. The SHCA wire is getting removed, and XS power cable is gonna get tossed in. Scottie has helped a ton with bats and the wire. Team XS ftw... anyway,... lets get this moving, and good luck to all that compete. Go have fun. LOL, port adjustments lol. Great looking boards imho. The fit and finish is legit, and there is some heft to them. I dig the look, fit, and finish. Gut shot Trip power and ground for a 4k ? hmmmmmmm Thanks for looking. And again, good luck to all this season. Hope to see you in the lanes
