Posted May 26, 201312 yr Ok, so I've never put a build log on here so please bear with me if I mess this up. This started as me wanting to get louder and ended up like nothing I could have imagined. Its a 2006 Chevy Silverado EXT cab 71 pickup with the 5.3L.Equipment installed is:2 Singer 350A Alternators (stock running as master)MLA ModuleAmerican Bass 1100.15 C&D Batts1 XS Power up front2 sets Boston Pro 60SE Components (Running as coaxial)Boston 2 channel6 SSA Zcon 15s (4th order enclosure)Some tire/suspension mods to hide the almost 2000lbs of equipment. First the walkaround now into the build pics: (I didnt take very many)^^^^Crossovers in place of factory bose amp^^^^Light Test of Million color LEDs^^^More Color Test^^Starting to work on the back^^^Ready for fuses^^Underhood complete^^^ Port into cab done.. It needs tuned yet but it hit 154.2 sealed on the TL at 46hz (too high for my blood, gonna put in a loading wall and drop it down. Shooting for 35-40hz peak)More to come!!
July 1, 201312 yr Author Very nice but whats the size of your enclosure?I believe the enclosure is 8 cubes sealed, 16 cubes ported. Those are rough numbers, because right now un-tuned I am looking at a 1.8 to 1.9:1 4th order. There is too much port area, so I am in the process of getting a loading wall installed to narrow the bandwith. Once the new port is installed, it consumes some of the current port as box area, so it jumps to around 2.1:1 ratio. I am going to update this soon as more work is done to the system, and I will be clamping subs/ graphing response curves. Now I know everyone is gonna say that is a small sealed space for those zcons, but they work suprising well in there. And at a 154.2 sealed at 46hz untuned, IMO thats pretty good (better than I expected). The best part is the day we installed the amp we took it down to a show. Once there, I demoed it at FULL VOLUME for close to 30 minutes immediately before entering the lanes and got the EXACT same score I achieved earlier that day with the amp install..
