Wife's 98 Ram Blow Through

[chad y 1]

My wifes truck is a 98 Dogde Ram Sport, 3"lift 33" tires.

Current system:

Alpine 9885

RF power 6.5 coax (only off deck)

RF P2 12 in 1ft^3 sealed center console

Eclipse xa 1000 (sub amp)

The plan:

Alpine 9885

RF power 6.5

PG Tantrum 400.4

Mach 5 audio Mj 18 M 4dvc

6 ft^3 tuned to 32-35 hz (Hvae heard blowthoughs lower tuning?)

PG Tantrum 1200.1

She listens to mostly R&B and Rap so I think this should make her happy for the time being.

I'll upload pics as I can

Weather and work will determine how quickly this gets done.

as always I am open to any suggestions or comments.

Thanks

I'm looking for Idea's for enclosure.

Mark for Mach 5 suggests 5.5-6 ft^3

off the top of my head I have 20" high x 24" deep x 49" wide thats staying between the wheel wells.

I'm going out now to measure.

Thanks Shogen,

and she said no people just curbs and imports....... haha

Curbs and imports haha.

Looks fun.

I don't see why a blow through would lower tuning

[chad y 1]

Please ignore the crude drawing.

Here's the dimensions I have available.

Chad

[chad y 1]

Oh and 20" high.

Any Idea's for encloseure design for blow through?

Chad

[hdorre 1]

Your WIFE wants a BLOW THROUGH?!? Good shit

[chad y 1]

So for enclosure design,

36" wide x 20" high x 20"deep top 24"deep bottom 4.5" slot port tuned to 33hz. 6.0ft^3 after displacement and bracing.

Any opinions?

Nice lookin' truck, great lookin' wife!! That's a win-win in my book!! Tuned in!!

[chad y 1]

Made some templets where the front of the enclosure will meet the front of the box. The top rail of the box tips in about 2". I will probly work on the enclosure this weekend. Anyone have any better idea's for the enclosure? Opinions?

Nice wife, with an agressive truck.

How does she feel driving such a monster ?!!

You'd better ask Bromo or jbl Camry for the design.

[j-roadtatts 1,129]

Tuned in. I am working on a friends Ram stereo today.

[chad y 1]

no updates, been to busy at work. I'm hoping to get some work done this weekend.

Chad

I have been thinking about how big I am going to make the hole in the box and cab.

The enclosure is going to be 36" wide by 20" tall. I can only cut about 15"tall in the front of the box and still maintain structural integritty. so I am thinking I will make the cut 36"x15" However I am open to suggestions.

thanks

Ok, finally have some time today and decent weather to get some work done.

will have some updates and pics later.

Chad

[chad y 1]

I put the wife to work....lol

I have to wait for some wood, Hopefully this week.

Drawing out on scrap wood.

Thats all for now.

Question?

If I cut the hole 15" x 26" will this opening be large enough?

Thanks

Chad

[chad y 1]

After some thought I think I am changing the enclosure design. I think I am going to face the sub and port towards the passenger side fired into a chamber and into the cab of the truck through a 15"x16" through port. Enclosure will still be 6.0ft^3 and tuned to 30-34 Hz.

Any suggestions? Opinions?
