Bought 2 sets of Morimoto 55w ballasts, and 6k bulbs to replace the ddm tuning ones.

Installed the first set hoping they would handle the high voltage since the ddm tuning ballasts couldn't. The right one does fine but the left one shuts off at any voltage peaks above 15, which happens everytime I hit the gas. Incredibly annoying considering these supposed go up to 32v. I'm guessing it's because I don't have caps and resisters in for ballasts. Going to try that and see what happens. Waiting on installing the halos till I have some oracle inline voltage regulators. Lighting has been more of a project that I had anticipated, and more expensive. (700 so far)

they are still a warm white at 6000k 55w. Wanted a slightly cooler whte, but thats okay.

Looks nice so far, but man on that front stage unless you have all of the equipment you should really rethink it.

I already changed it after putting thought into it a month or so ago. So two 9in morel caraudio midwoofers per door with 4 morel378s total and only one leviathan. The morel woofers are insanely expensive but they have awesome specs unlike anything else I've seen. Oh and my tweeters will never change I absolutely adore these morel 378s.

The neo pro 10s are plenty loud and sound great but I still find myself looking something else. Hopefully the morels will fill the need. Put a ton of thought into it.

A little look at the innards. I've realized very quickly from the 3-4 different walls I've done there's no point in over thinking a wall before you start to build it. Its going to change and twist more than you can ever account for to get the space you need/want. I'm at around 21cubes and 30hz currently but I had to cut the port area down slightly. Wanted to tune real low or really high with a large port, but modeling it without cabin gain this came out with the best overall response. With the peak of the car being 39hz I think response will stay in the range I'm looking for.
