  1. Ow no doudt I wouldn't wear my own car out if I had a company car. I drive a lot of dealer cars myself I run a detail shop and one of the lots gave me permission to use their cars all I wanted. It really surprised me. I was dropping off a car and he had another he wanted done, so I told him I had to run across town, and he said just drive ours you don't have to come back. He said they where used so it didn't matter how much I drove them. He said as long as you got gas drive them all you want. So most weeks my car sets at his dealer in the garage and I bring a car home use it for the day detail it and take it back and pick up another one.
  2. I'm waiting on a box, and alt, so maybe by the time I'm ready to put everything in the new mustang, you will have the tweets done. Any idea what a price on the tweets might be?
  3. I would think a couple of Xcon 12's would fit in a Altima trunk, that's nissan's biggest car. I would build a box to fire backwards pushed right up against where that rear deck comes down. Can the rear speakers be removed and that carpet hanging down? Or is that a metal deck under it coming down.
  4. What are you guys using for tweeters with the evils? Arron do you think I could replace my infinity cappa mids with the evil and keep the tweeters and make it sound better, cause I like the infinity tweeters but the midrange really lacks for volume.
  5. That should be plenty of room for 2 10's, you just need a short box, that's long, and wide, to make enough air space. And I have never heard the gcon, but I have heard the xcon's, and they sounded great, especially for the price, there hard to beat for the price. If your going for sq the Incriminator flatline is a good little sq sub to.
  6. Yea it's quick, it surprised me when I first test drove it, I thought it was a 2.4 4 cylinder, and I got a surprise when I kicked it down. The engine and the interior is the reason I got it, had it been a 4 banger I wouldn't of wanted it. Honestly didn't think I would like it, but my woman wanted it, and I liked it after I drove it. The newer ones are ten times better then the 08-10 models, they sucked.
  7. I didn't think JL sold a stealth box with a W6 in it, or did you replace the original sub with the w6? And yes their expensive no doudt about that, but most high end things are. When I had my 3 12w6's in 1997 I gave $200 a piece for them, those days are long gone. But man did they ever sound good and get low.
  8. And that's why I have the avenger, so my 10 year old doesn't have to squeeze into the back.
  9. Here ^ is probably why your JL is underwhelming. And if your using a stealth box, your obviously not using one of their hand built W6-W7 subs, so if it's a W1 its a cheap China sub in a nice box or at best a W3. Try a 12w6 in a sealed box on some proper power, like a MMats wired high for sq, like 4ohm and I bet you will be impressed, I was. But I will say, mine where the first versions, but I doudt the new ones got worse.
  10. Man I'm 6'4" 300lbs and I fit fine. Now the back seat, that's a different story. Apparently, only midget amputees where ever meant to set back there.
  11. What all do you have in this system? Front stage? Wire type size? Head unit? Stock alt? Battery? Maybe if we had more info we could figure out why it isn't loud enough.
  12. A friend of mine had a truck like that, and we found his subs sounded best, and hit the hardest, pointed straight up, with the port firing to the rear with the box pushed up against the back of the seats, but it could be totally different for your box, subs, and vehicle. But you want be disappointed with that set up in that truck. Those soundqubed HDC15's get nasty loud. My nephew has one of the 4" inch coil subs and it hits like crazy but not the best sounding sub but plenty of spl if that's what your after. And I think SSA sells the exact boxes for those subs unless you want a custom box and not a prefab.
  13. Yes it's very similar, your still putting more current through the amp then is recommended, which can cause problems if it ain't one hell of a amp.

  15. Yes it's a 2013 Avenger 3.6. And yea I was reprehesive about buying a ford but I really like the new mustang. I got a really good deal on it. It was a left over from 2015 and a friend of mine got me a hell of a deal on it.
  16. No it's screwed down and the box is so big it can't move anywhere so there wasn't a need to bolt it down. I had to remove the trunk latch just to get it in there. The battery is under the sub box in a box built for it. I'm actually gonna build a duel ported box for that sub and another W7 when I get a chance I'm always so busy running these businesses and taking care of dogs.
  17. Your looking at it as soon as the box is built. My sundowns are going in the new mustang. I sold the old ford and bought the new mustang a few days ago but as soon as I get time and ol boy gets my box done I will post some picks. I am also gonna need a h/o alt for the new car to but I have everything else from the old car.
  18. Most 1ohm stable amps would strap at 2ohm together. Just depends on what amps your talking about.
  19. You want loose your hearing as much as you will gain a ringing in them. I have tittinus myself, I think I spelled that right, but anyways it's annoying when your trying to sleep and it's quiet. And learn to take a joke obviously I was kidding about the speaker box car but that is what 6 18"s would look like in a tiny hatchback.
  20. Anybody seen that vid of the car on you tube the guy made a speaker box out of the entire car with Alfred subs bolted right to the roof I think that is what speaker boy is wanting a giant sti speaker box lol.
  21. Old bike I had back in my younger days. Loved that beast.
  22. One of my old trucks I used to have. I ran a 2 way active front stage in this one.
