Even if you don't see a huge hp gain, the sound will be nice. Pic looks like it retains the factory cold air inlet too.
-
Ohh the sounds!
-
Lookin good again. Steve, is that still factory paint on the Rezcalade or was it ever repainted?

A hamburger, if you cut youself on anything in there, then maybe a chicken fried steak!

There are plenty of 'real' ecu tuners for BMW, save your money.
-
Steve, I'm curious if a camera from a local news station could get decent sound? They would probably love to film it and could provide you with the footage.
Just a thought.
-
Well I say build it like Steve did the Hoopty, but I'm a little biased! As far as airspace that will be determined by the subs you choose.

Anyone know what a "no land" drill bit is? Are they the same as a spot weld bit?
Something like this?
-
Well this is the "Anything for that extra couple of horses!" forum, these guys went a little further than most!
No this is not a photoshop, that IS a Viper motor in there!

KW coilovers ride great! My good friend has a set in his PT, and even with it set very low, it rides a lot better than my PT does with H&R springs.
I say you do the suspension first, take your time to decide on the exhaust because you can't exactly adjust the exhaust like you can the coilovers.

I am looking for a quiet riding 225/40/18.
Anyone have experience with Nitto NeoGens?
The only comparing I can do is to the same size Falken 512s that I have on the PT, looking to upgrade the Mazda.

Fun post! Back in the day for me it was the Orion HCCA red amps, then there were the gold ones! Power 1000's were cool too, anyone remember Mark Fukuda's blazer? Or in Texas the R&D Audio Mustang?

Ok I have been reading a lot and emailing Fi. I now see that my intended ratio and that large box would have been really peaky - not what I wanted at all. So thanks for steering me into more reading. Think I am on the right track now, just have to play with the calculators some more.
-
How is it to big? I can always build smaller. Fi said it would be fine. Q18"s spec 4 cubes sealed each on the smaller side of their recommendations.
Please elaborate.
-
Ok emailed Fi and they say 2 18" Q's with high QTS option will work, but I need to tune to control a peak in the 50-60hz range. I have read that a 45hz tune is low for a 4th order, do I need to tune that low to control the peak? vs say a 55 hz tune.
What do you guys think?
-
2200 watts
-
Are these basic assumptions correct?
2:1 ratio ported to sealed
Port tune 45-65hz
Larger port area better?
I have at least 27 cu ft to work with. 9 sealed and 18 ported enough for 2 18"s? 2 15"s? Fi Q?
-
Thanks guys! Looks like everyone has/has had/recommends the larger end of what Fi web says. I think I will be just shy of the 4 cu ft per sub mark when I account for the port and sub displacement, but I can work with that.
This is for a planned rebuild of the PT this summer.
-
Ok, would like to hear from the Fi Q15 people out there. What seems to work for enclosure size for ported?
Fi website shows Ported box: 2.8-4 cuft @ 28-33Hz
How do these perform in the smaller 2.8 vs the larger 4.0 cu ft box? My tune will be somewhere between 33-38hz. 4 of them with ~4400 watts.
-
Thanks SQMonte!
It works now!
-
Ok guys help me out here. I only have access to SMD at work via my iphone, I can log in and surf, but I can not post or search, I tried the link at the bottom to the "full" version. It just logs me out if I try to post or search.
What am I doing wrong?
-
Simply incredible!; I don't know what else to say. There is NOTHING else like this out there, period!
Keep up the great work, Steve!

I think I heard it roar by on it's way through Texas!
