Here is a few pics now that im done. Finally got this damn cam. The alt bracket had to be bent out of the way but it worked. The grounds on the frame are welded on bolts cause I thouht it would be easier. This alt is a BEAST! Thank you Mechman! My power is incredible right now! I hope the regulator isnt set too high. I never touched the adjustment screw and installed it how it was. I thought it came set for you between 14.4-14.9. Is that right? My gauge never gets to 14. It was always over 14 at start up before, but now its just a litle more. Before at 3/4 volume I could get the batt LED light to come on within 5-7 seconds of play. Now...now is a different story.

Well this is the first transmission line box i've ever built.. I read the tutorial yesterday on how to build one and didn't think it was that hard, so i built this one this morning in my spare time. Took about 2 hours to cut and assemble the box.. After getting it done i put it in a chevy s-10 blazer, with some kind of off brand amp pushing only about 300-400 (sad but that's all he had. Haha..). And with that little power running to it, everything flexes in his truck, and it's loud from 25hz all the way up to 60hz.. I'm very impressed with t-line boxes, and i find them easier to build than just regular ported box.. Haha.. Specs: Fs of a D1 Fi Bl is 35.2 Box "port" is exac…

I built a ported box for my rlp-12. It's 2.2 cubes tuned to whatever it is. The port is 34 inches long and goes from 1.5 inches at the start to 3.5 inches at the end, i don't know if that would change the tuning or not. I based it off a 2.5 inch port and took an inch off of the beginning and added one on the end.. Outside dimensions are 22.5 x 22.5 x 14.5 inches. Im not going to do anything else to this box cuz im gonna scrap it. My gear my box having some fun with the box my half ass install doesn't the box just look all pretty. im gonna make a different one for the sub. This is the best sub i've ever heard. I just wanted to take it out for a quick 20 minute driv…

So me and Jake met up today with Edgar in San Marcos to give him his custom made enclosure that he ordered from us made for 2 18 bls. Too big for our cars to carry so we had to take the tahoe I even gave it my signature blessing for maximum spl. Jake liked it so much he wanted to live in the dammed thing. The box came out really nice; ready for vynil, carpet, rhinoliner, you name it! Here are some pics. pix whatever you kids call them these days. Thanks again Edgar!
