I wonder if the performance is as similar as the guts... Anyone know for sure?

Hope you post any results you get. I'm curious as well.

I hear tell of extendable areo ports, but I have no idea how well they work. Check Parts-Express, unless someone on here can tell you more about them.

And now, see the amazing Adrian D go for 160!!! now he turns on the car and opens a window! lol Oh no, then he'd hit 170. We don't want to kill anyone now.

What's the next goal?

Team IAK was sleeping, all snug in their beds, while visions of Geos danced in their heads...

I need money for this bad.... Maybe the tooth fairy could hook me up, quick, someone sock me in the jaw! Who needs teeth when you have an enormous battery bank to take a bite out of voltage troubles?

Basically, they kick ass.

Ordered mine earlier this week. Hope they get here safe and sound and here's to fixing your surround! Hey, I'm a poet and I didn't know it. Seriously though, I hope you get it fixed earlier than May. Bummer dude.

Also, if your goal is loud, (and I'm sure you've heard this), ported is the way to go.

Pick one of the two 12s setups. "There is no replacement for displacement."

Anyone? If my information is unclear, retarded, or you just have a question, let me know. I really want to do this box up right, so any and all input is appreciated.

This build log has really got my attention, and I think you are doing a great job from what I can see, but the problem is I can't see much! It may be just me, but there are like three pages of "bandwith exceeded" photobucket warning things. Either way, good luck, and I hope I can at least see the finished pics....

Looks like it's time to hire some underlings to handle the emails...

Internal dimensions: 15" d 34" w 10" h Port: 10" h 3" w 30" l Sub displacement .1 cuft Subs up, port sideways 2.1cuft after sub and port displacement Leaving .1 for 45s, so 2 cubes net Tuning guesstimate: 33-34 Hz Side note: I would like to figure out how to calculate neccesary port area by the parameters of the sub, not by the 12-16 square inches per cuft rule, might use areos if someone has a suggestion.

And now, see the amazing Adrian D go for 160!!!

I'll save the 5 bucks for shipping.

I vote icons!

But are we looking at 14.5 volts instead of 14.4 or is it likely to see a large jump? That is the question... Whether it is nobler to face the slings and arrows of a single large fuse or to... oh never mind. lol

I'm about to grab up a normal ANL fuse holder from Knu when I notice they have this "high current" fuse holder that uses multiple mini ANL fuses instead of one big honker like the normal one, (not the mini). They say it will have "lower voltage drop across the fused surface area" as well as handling higher currents. Is there any validity to this statement? Has anyone had any experiece with one of these to know if it really has any great affect on voltage drop? I'm just curious...

Well, on a side note, I guess I will be running 1 ohm, as money is tighter than anticipated and 2 SA-8s are all that the budget allows right now. Thanks again everyone for the help, I hope this thread is useful to other people as well.

Congrats!

Looks good! The box looked kinda big in the trunk so I thought you were gonna fire it foward and seal off the trunk at first. Really good job!

Wow, this is really starting to look excellent! Scratch that, it was ALREADY looking excellent: this is starting to look abso-f***-a-lutelymazing!

im planning on getting a new h/o alt and 2 new batt within the nexxt month...money is sort of been tight in the past month and a half.... Well if money is tight, then it would be more wise to purchase the alt and batts first instead of an amp that will tax your electrical even more.
