Posted November 13, 200816 yr Hey guys, I would love to get into competing one day, and I have a question for you audio ethusiats. I have a few old "spare" vehicles around my house.... 2 trucks,and a van. One is single cab other is extended. Not my question is, which would you chose to work on. The van, or one of the trucks with a blowthrough. I would be interesed in which you think would have the most potential.. ThankxProbably SQ class... Maybe some SPL Comp... I dunno yet.ThxJoshP.S. could someone give me the pro's and cons of each in their on opinions "IF" you have done this before.
November 13, 200816 yr I'd try the trucks, honestly. I've got a cargo van that I'd eventually like to do an SQ installation in, and there's next to no room in the kicks for pods. It's also a lot easier to hide wiring in a truck, in a van there's really nowhere to hide it unless you build up the interior.
November 13, 200816 yr I don't think that a blow through and SQ would ideally go together. EVERYTHING is possible though. And if you're doing MECA I think you would have to compete in Extreme with that much modification . Correct me if I'm wrong MECA guys.
November 13, 200816 yr Either of the trucks would likely be best for SQ. You don't need much room behind the seat for SQ (like in a standard cab truck) because you don't need much for a sub. Maybe a 12" in a sealed box. Extended cab would give you more room for amps and things though, obviously. and like Jim mentioned, the positioning of the front speakers is the key in SQ. You have to have options.But this is where you really have to decide between SPL and SQ, because the van definitely has the most potential for SPL due to space.
