still comin along great man. this is wayy to much work then i would ever have patience to put into an install, i like to get stuff done that day lol. you def have alot of patience on this build.

it's not all about the sanction right now though. when it comes to Car audio in illinois, there really hasnt been much the past few years. the last i remember was a few shows in quincy for usaci, which ther eare 7 shows listed at the same place this year, a few local shows in springfield, and then one dbdrag two years ago. theres just not much going on in illinois with it.

http://www.caraudio.com/forum/showthread.php?t=383345 my boss is trying to help bring more car audio interest to illinois. please list any interest or any shops or areas that could be used. he's had pretty good interest so far. please check out the posted thread. would anyone here be interest? --Dustin

yes they did think they were the chit. then they re-ran and didnt even do a 146 on the AC. i bet they were like yeah i remeber when i ran through i was afraid i was gonan burn somthing up becasue i had liek no voltage lol i think at idle i was at 11 lol. then i couldnt hear my engine and bout burnt it up from revin it at like 6000 rpm the whole time lol lol that sucks. i def want to come hear this when its done though. hopefully i will have my build for my 4 SE 12s done by then, right now im playing with only two of the SE's with a 6 inch aero. but currently i still work for circuit city...so im holding off on buying the other two until i get another job lined up...just gotta prepare for the worst you know. your gonna have to send me your number sometime. theres quite a few people local enough with us that will be competing this year. maybe we can get a small group to go together.

haha hell idk i was probably in my own world lolll was your ride there? yes it was. i was running the two Atomic APX 10s on my atomic 5k. on their meter, which was AC to anyone who is reading this btw, i did a 154 flat. its funny because in that class second place was like 144 then it jumped to my 154. On my TL though i was just shy of 150, 149.4 =(. yeah man i think i remeber that..did u have a white truck??? haha remeber that one car that they screwed the meter up and its jumped to the 162? lol i have a white mitsubishi eclipse. yes i remember that. the car was from alpha omega. it had 4 8 inch woofers in it. it was funny because SOMETHING had to screw up because when it reran it did like no more then a 147 on the meter. there is no way that it did the 162...NO WAY. i dont care what anyone says. everyone thought it was all awesome, but i was just standing back like yeah right... this is my car

ahhh i singed into the newer name by accident

im from peoria. i made a new name last night because i wouldnt remember my old login. lol. this is my original screenname

ok, we're getting there. what kind of car is it? Integra? it is an 03 mitsubishi eclipse. i guess i could have said that in the first post ha

the sub without the X on it was the reconed one and it sounds find. i played it free-air on tones and in a single 10 box on tones. and there is absolutly no rub. and thanks for asking about the car because i did get a new car. which means i need new SSA Stickers!!!! i had the older SSA stickers on my grand am since i bought the SSA Icon.

well i reconed the second apx 10 yesterday and decided to build the box today. i actually went and drove on the interstate to see how it sounded. the box is 4.25 cu ft after all displacements with two 4 inch aero ports. i do need to add more bracings to the top and bottom pieces though. i will be doing the added bracing tomorrow. I have two braces in the box now. In the last pic it only shows one, but i have one right next to that brace going from the top to bottom.

with the recommended enclosure? what were you burping at?

i already got my first bnib 2500.1

that is correct, but as long as i stick to the amount of port area he gave me on the this plan, testing AFTER this box will be alot easier. this just gets me a great place to start at.

My setup for the next season will include: 2 Kicker zx 2500.1 amplifiers wired @ 2 ohm each 2 AudioQue HDC3 12s, d1 vcs Northstar NSB 90 in stock location. 200 amp Alternator, rebuilt intown. I have a box design that I got directly from Steven Sears, whom is the Team Captain of Team High X-cursion. He told me he had someone on his team with 3 10s hitting in the 150s the TL in a Grand Am, and yes I have a Grand Am. He is very knowledgable on trunk vehicles. I plan to only use both kicker amplifiers during shows, and one for daily on a 4 ohm load. I will be selling my 2 audioque sd8s, and when my American Bass 120.1 gets back from being serviced it will be for sale as well. Tell Me what you think!!!

Very nice work.

Im glad you were able to get everything takin care of man. This is Dustin BTW. just a different name on here because someone already had my other name on this forum =P Take Care.

i was thinking about doing that actually...but im doing two shows soon, one the 23rd of this month, and another show next month sometime. i will post up numbers when i get them... but my epic center 150 is showing 147 db as my peak for music. give or take 4 dbs softer to the real mic, i figure around 142-143 on music is what im hitting, but like i said thats only on the epic center so i will list real numbers when i get them.

thanks for all the views and comments!!! and i all do matter about is my opinion in all reality...it just bugs me that everyone has to argue about something or down something to up themselves

DO IT

nice...

this thing is LOUD i will tell ya...and im gettin tired of the people on caraudio.com always talkin down on things...especially when they say im not thread bashing...BUT....blah blah duct tape blah blah this that...what ever though. im happy with the end result and as always, i have never cared about looks, just the output of the setup.

This is my second build for the BTL 15 i have. IT is wired at 1.2 ohms power by my Mean Machine 3000.1, with an NSB90 in the trunk hooked directly to the alternator. Hope you enjoy. box is 3.5 cu ft tuned to 35 hz

i just got all my new toys =) i will post pics tomorrow afternoon. new items include 2 LA Fuse holders 2 300 amp fuses... NSB 90 Mean Machine 3000.1
