  1. Running different sizes of batteries is not bad for them running different battery types aka AGM or Lead Acid can be an issue but its unlikely unless the car sits around for a long time draining the smaller one.
  2. Why do you want such a large box?
  3. With that large of a box you are going to end up shredding the soft parts on that amount of power.
  4. I think that a turbo is better since I don't have complications with belts and possible interference with power steering. If I can get the entire thing off the ground for $1.5k it would be awesome. mighty Car Mods did a few videos on how they turboed their MX5 Oh snap, plenty of people here upgrade their Subaru turbos... Thanks for the vid !!! No problem man the videos they make are pretty detailed too.

  6. Presumably there is a stock amp in the car? If it's within reach you can intercept the signal cable from the head unit before the inputs of the amp and just solder some rcas and use those as your low level inputs. but depending on where the factory amp is it could be more or less desirable to do it that way. The amp is easy to get, the question is will the signal be effed at the headunit or the amp. I also suspect that if it is in the amp that there is a digital bus for volume and not an analog control. It is the Cadillac version of the bose which is different than the Chevy....at least supposedly. I have found no one who has worked around it yet...but there has to be a way.Amp is supposed to be in the center console with the sub, but I haven't verified yet. In my experience with bose it's pretty level going into the amp, but typically the customers who come in aren't too discerning when it comes to SQ. Will you be using a MiniDSP?

  8. There's always the smd sunflash stuff that cures via uv. But most people don't want to support him.

  10. I love mine too. The other 1900x1080 are nice in panoramic though. 1920x1900* I wish I could find another one of my model, but people want wayyy too much for them used
  11. Do the flavor shots make a big difference? The place I go locally will only add 1x extra which doesn't make much of a difference in my opinion. Yeah it makes a GIGANTIC difference. I normally get 3x shots and it literally hits you in the face. But after 1-2 days of "maturing" it settles in and makes a huge difference. Some flavors won't make a huge difference if they're already super mild, but candy flavors it does make it much better. I'll be ordering some from them tonight, thanks. When I got rootbeer at first it was unvapable, but 3 days later its much better. started off tasting like straight licorice, then to rootbeer.
  12. Man I love having a 1900x1200 monitor. so much realestate lol

  14. Agreed, if you want to ween yourself off of nicotine its a great tool to use also. Go from whatever strength you vape, then go down to 0. lol
  15. Currently vaping some Root Beer from MTbakervapor with 3x flavor shots.. Damn its good.
  16. An extra battery, a car charger, and maybe a take-along bottle of juice. Normally a bottle of juice will last me about a week. But honestly probably 1/3 of that is just washed down the drain from changing flavors. I ended up getting another tank just so I could change out my 3 current favorite flavors.
  17. Terribly interested in your observations. What are you running on it? I am looking at clearomozers for outside use (I think I have narrowed it down to Aspire BDC tanks, most notably the ETS, the Vivi Nova S and the Anyvape Davide which uses the Aspire heads ), and I am on the fence about atomizers. I am thinking about the eVic atomizer. Last night my son's best friend's father came by my house. He bought a telescoping mech mod with a rebuildable drip atomizer and several juices. He brought 2 of the big 18650 batteries (a 20 amp and 30 amp battery) and the small 18350 battery, so I could see and try each one. It was truly a cool experience. The different batteries behaved differently (he did not have a variable voltage or variable wattage set up), which shocked me. They were all 3.8V batteries. So I am anxious to get my first mod, and I am interested in seeing how it compares to a mech mod. Personally I'd avoid mechanic mods. Battery life is terrible on them and the cheap mods are terrible. Some of them have cheap switches which takes little pressure to get them burning.learned that the hard way. Personally I don't like drip mods, yeah you get fresh juice every time but it's very time consuming to constantly drip new juice on the coils. Rebuilding coils is pretty cool but honestly the best clouds I've gotten have been out of my kanger pro tanks. His was pretty solid. I was impressed for what he had in it. Dripping I am on the fence on. I have a 501 atty and it is OK. It is great for trying friend's juices but it is a lot of work. I am contemplating a nice atomizer for just hanging out at the house. The clouds on his were amazing, and the flavor was mind blowing. But it is definitely not how I will use it for the most part, which is why I am using mostly clearos/glassos. I am hearing mixed opinions on the Kanger. My local Vape shop owner said she used to use them but they had leakage issues. She went to the Aspire tanks, which are cheaper, and she says they are better all the way around, except the Kangers are easier to clean up. I have also read a lot of issues with the Kangers leaking. People love them, or they hate them... there is no in between. I will be needing a few tanks, so I may try 1 Aspire Vivi nova and the Aspire ETS. I am thinking about grabbing an Aspire Davide, which is essentially a Protank with Aspire heads. But I am on the fence about the Davide or the Innokin I30, as I have read a shit ton of good stuff about it. It seems to be everyone's "always go back to" device. I am going with the all black eVic. I am getting both the 18650 and 18350 tubes. I figure for ~$20 more I'll just try the smaller battery and tube as well, for portability sake. My orig protank would leak occasionally when its extremely hot. The only issues I had with my orig one was spitback, which sucks.. But my protank 3 has zero issues, I really like it.. all parts are interchangeable and its very solid IMO
  18. I really like the kanger tanks personally. I buy all of my liquids off of mtbakervapor
  19. Yeah the halos are good, but IMO the E-Go Twists are the best starter. http://www.myvaporstore.com/Joye_eGo_C_Twist_Variable_Voltage_650mAh_Battery_p/ego-c-tst.htm

  21. Put the ignition wire to any switched source then put the yellow power wire straight to the battery or something that has a strong constant 12v that you wont overload.Ok thanks, guess that's why at high volume radio shuts off too. This old truck has 3 wires only, had to start guessing.Thanks *the ignition wire is red on the headunit

  23. They make thick rubber Matts than you put your computer chair on to keep it from catching I cut up and used that stuff in a build once. it's pretty dense and similar to mass loaded vinyl.
  24. Be aware they are noisy beasts. Constantly noisy beasts. Not really what I want....just cheap and easy.Same it's pretty straight forward. But personally I'd rather have a turbo. But the turbo kits for my car are 1k more expensive.
