first of all would i have room to port 4 of them in a 85 cutlass? i got a deal worked out on four of them from a dude down here they 12's and he said they fully loaded he upgrading to 2 18's. i got a mm 4000.1 would that be enough or do i need to sell and get another amp? help me out i know a setup like that ported would make my cut thump like hell

That would be enough, you would need ~8cubes after displacement.

so that amp would push them pretty nice? and i see you said 8cubes so i would have enough room to port them in my trunk,lol i dont know anything about music man,and would this setup get real loud i aint lookin to enter no comp or nothing i jus want the hood beat,that i hear that nigga coming down the street beat?

You can fit 8 cubes in a G-Body trunk FAIRLY easy.

There's about a 1,000 and 1 ways to do it, it all depends on your peronal preference....

you think that would bang like hell?

Hell yes!

I've got 2 15'' BL's in my 84 Monte trunk with 3.5 cubes each ported and I can hardly breath, and I only got 500 watts running to each!!!

pics

Just for you fag.... night time pics even.





Haven't even wrapped the boxes yet.....

i see no bagel

:lmao:

Does It Sound Good Wit Da Speakers Facin Up Or Mayb Im Tryna Ask Which Is Better Up Or Toward Da Trunk?

You must got asthma...lol. In the trunk and you having trouble breathin? Nah, not unless you're foldin seats down an all that stuff.

X2, the reason I asked is that I planned on doing 2 15" Qs ported but I want to do 4 12"s ported but I would have to face them up like your BLs and fire the port toward the taillights.

In a trunk, it really doesn't matter which way they're facing. If they're facing up, they WILL rattle the hell out your trunk lid. If they're facing towards the back, they WILL rattle the hell out of your trunk lid and rear bumper/lights :lmao:

Chevy, I dont think thats 3.5ft3 after displacement because u have too much room left over. 3.5ft3 + port displacement + sub displacement= corner to corner, top to bottom, front to back. That looks more like 2.5 after displacement. No offense intended....because its nice, but just looking at it and my knowledge of G-Body trunks I know thats probablly 3.5ft3 "net". Meaning its probably more like 2.5ft3. But to RidingHigh, That Autotek would be ok for those 12s but If It were me Id sell and try to find 2-XXHifonics Thor amps. The Autotek is a beast but for 4-12s that are capable of 1800rms ...u would only be seeing 1000rms to each sub. If U had the extra money Id run atleast 1600rms each. or do 4-12" Q's and that Autotek......that would be more in the Q's power range. Only running a G to a fully loaded BL is a waste of a good sub. Thats like buying a Lambo and running 87 Octane in it.

so two of those hifonics would do the job? how much they run for new and used it dont matter? and how many watts they put out?

Dont get me wrong I love Autotek, that amp would work fine. I was just saying that u could run alot more. But those Thor amps run about 600 new and they do 3K rms x 1@1ohm @14.4v.....so if u dont plan on getting ur electrical system upgraded...then Id keep what I got.

LOL. You know what I mean....

I've got a shit load of sound deadening throughout the trunk and cabin, as well as my rear deck ported.

It's actually around 3.3 after displacement, you just can't see the whole box in those pics.

The box extends all the way out to the quater panels and under the trunk lip on each side....it was damn near impossible to squeeze those bitches in there.

It's as tall at it will go too, I've actually noticed the foam hitting the lid on full excursions.

Sound deadening helps a LOT, especially if you can take out your headliner and put a layer or two on it. I know in my little Tacoma truck, it made a HUGE difference in SPL and with overall road noise reduction. I used to have to scream across the cab (like 2ft away) at 70mph, now it's like whispering at class with sound deadening 2 layers all around (roof, back, doors, and floor. Sounds like you're riding in a caddy Get a vid of your shit beatin whenever you get a chance.

well i planed on get a new alt,what else do i need?

You ain't lying, sound deadening is like night and day.

My video phone isn't compatible with any program I've tried. I don't know how to post vids but I'm working on it......

what kinda phone?

Samsung A900

OOOOh....I calcalculated up a box for 2-15"BLs in my Cut and whats holding me back is the fact that I would have to build it inside of the trunk. I wouldnt be able to get it in there if I built it and tried to place it in there.....Now Im leaning more towards 2-12"BTLs with more power (something in the ballpark of (3000-3500rms)...the extra juice should make up for the decrease in surface area but it would still be tuned very low, something like 80sq" of shared port tuned to 32Hz. Who knows, might squeeze 3 with 2500rms each depending on how I can play around with the port calculations and box shape.

alt,bigger wire (which is a dead giveaway), and extra batteries.....eitherway u roll ur gonna need a solid Starter battery and depending on what size alt, u'll need 2 big batteries in the rear if u have a smaller alt like a 140amp....if u get a 200+ alt then u may be able to get away with 1 rear battery if u keep the Autotek. If u run those Hifonics ur gonna need atleast 1 big battery per amp. Just remember the less amps ur alt is capable of...the more ur gonna have to make up for that in batteries.

500watts per 15 and u cant breathe?
pussy.
lmao.

u need to get more power!!!! all that potential and youre still running 1000rms lolllll

i heard a 15" hd3 in a hatchback off of a sundown at .75ohms and it still wasnt loud enough for me.

when i get my car back i got something coming.
(rf t40001bd might be included, yea about 4500rms)

YOU AIN'T LYING!!! lol

As soon as I getter a higher output alternator, I'm getting another amp...probably something around 2400RMS.

It'a all in the setup though, my friend!

i can get you a nice deal on a RF t20001bd, itll do about 2700rms i think. should move those 15s reallllll nice.


oh i picked out everything for that focus, and took it to the guy that did mine. his install is nice and box is too. its tuned to 37 i think....


im just hype to get my car and a job so i can stack up for this upgrade.
think im going bandpass through the armrest. a good 80-96 sq. inches port.

What's the best price you can quote me on that 20001bd?!?!?

i got quoted $475 for a 200amp alternator /no


those big punch amps are the shit though, i'd love to have the 3kw. ima settle for another SS like i have strapped... xclusive, you gonna go with audioque this time?

I got quoted $500.

For some reason I just can't force myself to pay that much for one though.

Anyone got a link to an Iraggi supplier?

That MM4000.1 would work great for those 4 12's...

Don't let anyone confuse you, a solid 1000rms to each and they will bang... HARD.

Remember, the BL's are based off the same magnet slugs as the Q. With a top/bottom plate more similar to the BTL.

They're the LOUD version of the Q, with Q series is mainly an SQ subwoofer at first.

nG

~450.

dude is on floridaspl.com
he has hella references of big name competitors so i trust him.
hes out of carolina. but the thing is u have to pay and since hes like a middleman / wholesaler, u have to wait like 4 weeks to get it.
and if it takes too long he'll send u a full refund.
in some cases he's sent full refunds and some.

i'd refer u too him, and you can talk 2 him and decide if u really want to do it; for that price, i'd wait the damn 4 weeks.
right now i can get the 40001bd for 740 shipped. its going up though so i dont know what ill end up paying, but still thats like a $1400 amp.

what brand was that??

EA doesnt have the best reputation, but i know some ppl that run him in their setup and it works fine. plus they are a big competitor and good friends with nate, im gonna get an EA along with my summer upgrades.

and yea im most likely going 2 12" hd3's on that RF t4k. i think it does about 4500rms, so 2250 to each hd3 should get reallllll loud.

taxhisass im coming for you!!!! ahahahahahaa (soundwise)

http://www.h-o-alternators.com/

bet i'd get a 200+ alt EA for cheaper then that.

want me to ask my dude?

Jep you got e-mail!

OMG, DO NOT... I repeat DO NOT go with an ExcessiveAmperage Alternator over an H-O Alternators ALT.

That's like comparing Hifonics Amp to a DD Z1a...

nG

i dont know much about EA....are they really that bad???

that kid with the 4 18" BTls has a 300A EA alt, kenny had one, and my installer is sponsored by them....and seems like their setups run fine, but im sure you know more then i do, so enlighten

Well, they're hit or miss.

Like I said, kind of like the Hifonics of Alternators...

nG

So according to everybody else they are overrated right? Lol.

well according to my guy who runs em, he says if i got a 200A itll really do about 220A....

and according to him they are good and work good in his van, which he's won a lot of shows with....soo i dont know i guess we'll see.
