  4. ya I can't wait! Its not a daily driver, just a project car. But we will see this week how bad it is and I will add batts and amperage accordingly. haha ya they are fun as hell if you have them but not if your the victim lol usually I go to regular dealer auction to get my cars but I knew the guy personally who owned the truck and he got busted with 234 k's of coke and they took all of his cars which were at a shop near where I live (they were getting worked on and upgraded), so when the FEDs came at 2 am to pick them up they had keys and everything and thats why I went out of the way to go to a police auction cause I was familiar with the cars. But yes the couple cars I picked up all had keys. A guy owed my dad money about 2 years ago so this is one of the things we got in trade and my dad is letting me use them til he gets a truck again haha. NOT MY FAULT! lol...when the fedex guy came the box was already opened from the bottom...glad they are ok tho as stated above I got them from someone in debt to my dad...il PM you...they are Nathan K5...this kit is worth $1500 thanks man and its for sale...I bought it to sell it...show truck ready to go
  5. What? its the only place I could mount these. You can't even tell its there with everything back together now, besides lookin in the grill.
  6. I buy and sell cars at auctions and picked that truck up at a police auction for 2/3 of the kelley blue book price...But yes I plan it being sick
  7. stock alt is a 200amp cause its the police intercpetor model. Next week I am ordering a dual alt kit and adding a second 250 amp alternator
  8. a few pics before I do a build thread... -2 LVL 5 18"s -2 Powerbass XTA-5000s -2 Shuriken 2600s -Wall something else you guys might like:
  9. I want to start establishing credit so when I get out of college and move on with my life I have some credibility. I just want it basically for gas, I don't buy things I can't afford so I won't worry about that. Where do I go to apply, my accounts are at Regions Bank? And how hard is it to get?
  10. dude it would just void the warranty of the part it affects. Like say something is fucked up with your airbag there or something that your modding, the warranty on that is voided. But everything else should still be fine and covered.
  11. damn thats my buddys court date, december 18th...for 200bars & 6 ozs of kush
  12. you have to have DC Sounds tatted across your forhead and you have to have atleast 10 lvl 5 18"s in your car and then you have to reach atleast 170dbs. You have to meet all criteria
  13. Ok well 2mara the shop where I bought them is going to call Viair. In the meantime I am just gunna buy two more and put them on one of the 5 gallons and unhook the other one until I get my compressors.
  14. hell ya it aint stopping me...lol. In the mean time I bought 2 more compressors so I am hooking both of them up to 1 5 gallon and then when I get the other 2 fixed I will hook them up to the other 5 gallon. But already got the amp/battery rack built and my buddy is starting the wall tomorrow when the subs come in.
  15. I have tried two times in the past 2 weeks to try to register on there and I am still waiting on the email from the website to activate...
  16. Damn man I wish it was that quick. Ya it sucks cause they are inside my car so its all you hear all the time. I will take a 10-15 minute drive somewhere and the compressors finally turn off once I get there lol. Another probally important fact is that I have a 200psi pressure switch, maybe thats why they are always going trying to keep up. I am thinking once I get the 2 I have fixed and add two more it will be a lot quicker and it will probably be a lot quieter to because I am walling off my 18"s to.
  17. they were in a empty trunk in the crown vic. just the tanks and compressors. I never really played with them that much and when I did I just did the back to drive and park. I think adding to more compressors will help take the load off of the 2 after I get them fixed. I think they came already not working 100% from the factory cause it took a good 15-20 to fill up 10 gallons the day I got it. And each day I used it it got longer. The shop that put them in are gunna call tomorrow so we will see.
  18. $3000 is a lot for that truck especially with almost 200k on it. Just make sure its clean, take high quality pictures and list it on autotrader and craigslist and drive around with a for sale sign on your window with a phone number!
  19. I bagged my 2001 crown vic on 24"s, f/b/s/s everything and did it with 2 5 gallons and 2 Viair 480's. Well after a week one of the leader hoses (metal braided hose from compressor to tank) started leaking for the compressors and I replaced it. Then the other compressor just stopped working, not making any noise or pumping air. After a couple hits with a hammer (lol yes I know, I was stuck tho) it finally started working. Well now last week (after being bagged for 1 month 1 week) another one of my leader hoses blew on the other compressor. And now that its at the shop we took the filters off both the compressors and neither of them are sucking in air and the front of the car wont go over 70lbs. Well now the car is still sitting in the shop while we are figuring out what we are going to do. At the moment they are installing my 2 DC LVL 5 18"s and 2 PB XTA-5000s and I am adding 2 more Viair 480s to have a total of 4, 2 on each 5 gallon. Does anyone know why these compressors would do this? Also does anyone have any recommendations on different compressors? Personally I think they just overheated and got overworked. We will see what Viair says Monday to see what they are going to say about the warranty...
