wow nice install! Clean!

Thank you! I've been checking your build out as well, and have seen nothing but great things come from it!

 

OK-  You have a buil log on CA-F too right?  Thought it looked familiar...\

 

Looking forward to the new box build.

I do, yes. Finally transferring everything over :)

 

Vee sub power, turrrrbbbooooooo.

Absolutely love ours, build is looking great

How do you like the tune? Thank you!

 

I like GTIs ! Very good cars.

Tuned in for more pics ;-)

 

Why do you want a new box ? This one looks  good, for a few hours work ;-)

I've had this almost a year, and I'm super happy with this car. This box doesn't have enough port area and I want different sub/port orientation (possibly) I think there can be some great improvements on a proper design.

Finishing up on old "updates"

 

I've got 2 runs of 1/0 welding OFC cable in the car covered with Tech Flex. Dual inputs from explicit audio, and stock alt/battery/no big 3.

Build looks great! Can't wait to see more.

The tech flex looks awesome...may have to look into doing that to mine...

 

Nice whip!!

 

 

I am a VW fan myself.(particularly TDI cars)  I bought a 06 Jetta new, and then an 05 Passat used.  Really liked them both.  Nice Start! 

 

 

Nice Ride

 

 

Sweet car and nice start!

Thanks, Guys! Appreciate VW love!

 

I love me some VWs, hoping my next car will be one. What are the audio plans?

I've got some done, I'll post some updates tonight. I'm looking for feedback on what to do next smile.png

 

Nice clean looking car man, I like the aladdin knife in that one picture.

That was the sharpest thing close to me at the time haha thank you!

 

Nice, do you have anything planned for subs?

Sure do! I'll post updates tonight.

Took a little video of the exhaust note today. All stock other than the resonator delete.

That sounds really good. Nice build too.

Working on a new box design. Using Torres for the most part. Looking for anyone who has a bit more experience with box building for high excursion subs to chime in and give any tweaks or suggestions. I'm wanting to try sub/port up for this box to make sure I have enough port/volume.

 

Measurement I have are depth: 18", width: 39.5", and height 19". I want to tune at 35 hz.

 

Torres is giving me 4.07 cubic foot at ~34.8hz with 82.5in^2 of port area. This is with a second baffle, .75" wood thickness, no bracing (calculated for), port being 5"x16.5, and port length of 35" (physical length of 28.5").

 

This SOUNDS good to me, is there anywhere I could improve? These are pretty much my max. dimensions. I may be able to get an inch or two more height if needed.

 

Sub's info: http://store.ficaraudio.com/team15/

 

Any help is appreciated, thank you in advance for anyone who checks these specs out!
