  1. Use Punctuation! Nice amps BTW! Solid powerhouses if you can support them.
  2. Send it Al Poppito. You really don't know the potential that thing has, especially with the new Trick Flow heads coming out. They outflow the current crop of 4V heads.
  3. Actually his wife had the baby.
  4. Taking care of Aidan i was gonna ask what my chances are of getting you on the phone somtime this week PM your contact info and questions, we'll go from there. I have NO idea my schedule as my world just got turned rightside up. Fixed it for you.
  5. Yeah, it was a LOT tougher than I thought it would be. Either that, or the scissors were crap.
  6. Yeah, that's a dead nuts Sean photo. Mini-sized.
  7. Man, that kinda makes me want another one, but I need some more money before that happens. Kids are the never-ending money-pit.
  8. Sean, did you cut the cord? BTW, those Swaddlers (Pampers) diapers they have on him are great! My son has pissed and shit through every other diaper aside from those.
  9. 95 amp alt on either engine, but they are different alts.
  10. Good job Mommy and Daddy!!!!! He looks like his father. I wish you all the best!
  11. Don't pray to god, just go to walgreens and get condoms. Teh condoms and pill. Still no guarantee. I'll show you the proof.
  12. Loading is using a nearby object to reinforce the output. This will not be happening in this instance and is negated by the fact that the entire trunk is essentially a large sealed enclosure. All the air in the trunk is the air spring. That wall will have zero effect in this application.

    I put some 10s in the hatch of my dad's old 1st gen explorer. It wore the struts out quickly, but they were out of the way of everything and it was surprisingly spacious.
  14. how is everything!!!???? We won't know for several days. If you have children, you understand.
  15. No, not mesh. It's the screen stuff that comes in the rolls. . . I don't know the proper term for it. As for the 'crete, I don't know why it would have to be sprayed. I've never seen concrete sprayed before. Pumped, yes, but it's essentially the same as a pour. The foundation in my old man's pole barn was poured with fiber-reinforced concrete and that has had no problems yet. I just used the stuff you buy in a bag at Lowes. This is the stuff: http://www.quikrete.com/ProductLines/Fiber...ConcreteMix.asp
  16. There are way too many variables for us to test this accurately. Nightshade, your testing is great, but it doesn't prove that the resin or angles helped. A slight change in volume from adding the resin and angle could also be the reason for this. A difference in air temp, driver temp, slight power increase or spike, etc, could have easily accounted for your gains as well. There is no way to accurately pinpoint the resin or angles and being the sole factors for the increase in SPL. Let's shoot this one to the Mythbusters team. Ha Ha.
  17. Sean, I hope all goes well. You have no idea how much life is about to change. It's for the best though!!!!
  18. South Bend. Fuck Indiana.
  19. I'd keep it as open as possible behind the drivers. Don't worry about the subsonic filter, it won't be needed. If you want to use it for safety's sake, set it at 20. Keep in mind, with this application power handling will be at least cut in half. BTW, is that a Taurus/Sable trunk? It looks eerily familiar.
  20. I did use the fiber re-enforced concrete, albeit the bag type. Don't know if that makes a differnence. I also did put steel in it. No rebar, but the sheet type stuff that is commonly used in sidewalks, driveways, etc. .

    I agree, but it doesn't matter what we think. At least the green machine is properly lifted.
  22. I don't know the specifics, but here's my experience with hardness. I once built an enclosure out of concrete. It was very thick and it's internal airspace was round. I used an inflatable ball in the form and simply let the air out once the concrete was set. The enclosure was extremely strong and if IIRC, it weighed somewhere in the neighborhood of 320lbs. Now, we'd all agree that concrete is harder than wood correct? Well, upon trying to move this, my helped dropped his side which in turn happened to me, and the enclosure was toast. It landed straight on it's backside, from the tailgate of my pickup and "splat." I've done this several times with MDF and plywood enclosures and none of them have been destroyed. I don't know the physics involved, but hardness and brittleness do go hand in hand. Contradictory to that, if I were to be stuck in a tornado, I'd rather be in a concrete and steel structure than wooden. It's all about the type of force and how it is acting on said object(s). Take an aluminum frame and drop it on the ground and then a steel one. Which is more likely to be more heavily damaged?
  23. It's a beast. Seriously. I paid $300 for the thing and I've done nothing more than fill the tank and change the oil twice in 22,000 miles. It's got 145K on it and it's been detonating since I got it and I still have yet to pop a piston. I'm going to roll it til the wheels fall off.
  24. No, I'll have to wait til June. They didn't have a time slot that would work for me.
