ok..im suppose to be studying but im doing this instead. just thougt id share my build. its the second box i built and the first install ive done...consists of everything in my sig...here we go...

the electrical is definitly overkill...but now i have room to upgrade...

onto the box...

now for sealing it off from the trunk...

first time dealing with fiberglass...it was a learning experience to say the least...

first time dealing with fiberglass...it was a learning experience to say the least...

then did the same thing to the other side...

after a lot of filling and sanding...

a little "shelf" type thing that goes right under my port so i can still slide it out, or else it would hit the "false floor"

putting it back together...

a before and after shot...

so on the meter (TL) i did a 143.8 at 33hz in the kick with the driver door open (meca style...which is the org. i would compete it). i did a 140.2 at 33hz sealed up on the dash like dbdrag. i went to one comp and did a 141.2 at 41hz...my score was still climbing but my fused popped...i still plan on making a larger port for burps and testing with some fuses...im really not a fan of that meca rule..but oh well....she gets loud and low, and still holds pretty damn good sq...

that is so weurd how big is ur box and 4 spl wats it tuned 2 and for daily wats it tuned 2

my box is 4.5 cubes tuned to 34hz with 64.75 square inch port and at 40hz im doing 140.5 db drag style and 144.2 @40hz outlaw style and 145.3 at the kick driver door open@40hz

i need 2 find where i peak cuz i know i have more in my setup

heres the kicker i have 1 sundown sae-1000d pushing 2 re se12's and my backseats dont fold down, yes i have a trunk car...mazda milleia

but nice scores

my box is huge for two 10's, probably about 1.5cubes to big, but i havent had a problem yet with this setup in like a year. the box is about 5cubes net, tuned to 30hz with two 4"aeros for daily. when i competed i didnt have time to make a square port, so i just used two 4"aeros tuned to 37hz and i peaked at 41 on the meter. i have heard from a few people that this car peaks around 50ish...so i plan on tuning my square port to around 47 and hopefully will peak a bit higher...if i get my fusing down i really think i can get into the mid 140s...

impressive numbers for 2 10's

i need more power and so do u....our se subs can take 1500 each on burps and 1k daily

we need more power...lol

thanks! i love these subs...i really dont think they get talked about enough, but they are some loud and clean sounding subs imo...like i said, im shootin for the mid 140s with them...which might actually make me a little competitive in S1 in meca...

which way are the subs/port facing in ur car?

i love them too! wish i never got rid of mine...well to an extent...i can agree with everything you said about them....nice set up by the way...looks real good....i especially like the changeable ports....definitely come in handy for driving to the comps bumpin, then it's just a matter of changing ports for straight spl

but very nice scores...i did a 143.2 in the kick with 2 12" SEs outlaw(in a MECA event) in a focus hatchback...4 cu ft. tuned to 28 or 29 hz or so....

but do the SEs really handle up to 1K daily for music?

nice install

i love the electrical overkill

a little bracing wouldn't hurt the box.

Love the subs, and the swapable port.

thanks guys!! i have thought about going in a bracing it..but i just havent had the time, and since its about to be the 'off season' i will probably just wait. and i have no idea if they can handle up to 1k on music. i know that tommy (ho problems) runs the se12's and has a one IA20.1 for every two subs, and he is running off 16volts i believe...so they can probably handle more (although i did see him blow a sub or two and smoke an amp at finals last year, which was awesome)

oh yea..that score of 141.2 was in meca with the new mic location at the headrest.

yes they can take 1k daily just make sure its clean power

maybe u could try like me and fire everything into the cabin, sealed off from the trunk. although that would leave u just a little room for a port. or u could fire subs forward sealed off from the trunk and port thru the rear deck, or mabye some sort of bandpass ported thru the rear deck...
