  1. Looks good and actually, I was surprised how white they look for 8k. I went with 35w and 5k for the white look. I got it with my truck, luckily. I've heard people say if you go 55w and 6-8k it stays white, but if you use 35w, then it turns to a purple? She is a sexy beast for sure! Now I have to fix my OCD and do the brights lol
  2. Hmm. Steve, I may be able to sell them both for you. I'll let you know in about 2 hours. (Waiting for his ass to relieve me from work lol) BTW, Envy...as in, I stopped updating my home pc cause I bout the Asus gaming laptop to play while at work so the wife quits bitching about me playing at home. Sweet frikken set up!
  3. it doesnt. because you cant put 2 engines in one engine bay. would a 800hp engine that costs less than a 500hp engine be better? engines are a TERRIBLE analogy for this. Better yet. Same car, you have a 400 HP motor for $4k and a 500 HP motor for $6k. I'd go 400 HP for $4k, then buy a blower for about $2-3k (S/C or turbo and cost is dependent on vehicle) and end up with more HP than the 500 HP. Of course, this is theory. Results may ALWAYS vary...as well as price. Anyways, back to learning. Thanks Tony. Granted it won't change the mind sets of most, but at least the info is there! lol an engine that cost more, cost more for a reason. you just cant toss a blower or any power adder to a motor with cast steel internals(if you do you have to be very careful and keep an eye on the boost).. you can build a 400hp motor and a 500hp motor for the same cost .. what will make a engine cost more is the type of internals you use.. to better help this topic lets say the 500hp has forged internals and the 400hp has cast steel.. wont you rather get the more expensive and have a reliable engine. or cheap out and get an engine that will blow up the second you turn it 6500 rpm? what im seeing here is that everyone is missing the point to what he is trying to say That was kinda my point/ thought. (hence, results may vary) I see exactly what snafu was saying, but also see what others are saying. It's one of those...if you do this, you can also get this, but if I do this, it may work better, but I can't do that...and so on and so on. Just to many variables. If car audio (and engines) were direct and to the point with no variables (and difference of opinion), then it wouldn't be much of a hobby or competition. Straight forward and to the point seems less interesting.

  5. Plastidip is some good stuff! Been using it to kill some of the chrome on my truck. Looks great!
  6. Fuckface?!?!?! Post them lol You're almost as bad as Berger and the hummer thread.
  7. ^^ same here. Started in 08, but lurked for ever. I can't even remember how I came across this site lol Congrats and thanks for a site that pretty much covers it all!
  8. Haha Good shit Steve. Audiofanatic and I kinda went into the light discussion in your original post. All I know, is the 10 dollar reptile bulbs, while they will work, would prob take for ever. 5 Minutes on that black light isn't bad at all! Go big on the nano's or let the sun do it! Now only if I could come up with a project to try this out.
  9. I wanted that AVBM for the car so bad and since I couldn't have it, I sold the car and bought a truck lol Between this and the Honda, I can't wait to see your crazy ass do the van!
  10. But but Steve, if I give you an idea and you use it, then I am a superstar! lol Looks great man. What happened to the 'two week delay' hahaha. Which is why I would trust you with my car. I know your love, pride and OCD will mean great outcome.
  11. Whats the year make model and engine size of your vehicle? 2005 VW GTI 1.8tEDIT: Didn't mean to t/j!
  12. Looks great! I'm with Steve. Also, any idea to find out if your car is PCM controlled?
  13. Thanks for the unneeded inputs to all the second skin 'employees'... Any way, I got the dealer to do the underpinning and some spray that keeps the barnacles and nasty other shit from the Chesapeake from sticking and making it hard to clean and from keeping water from seeping into the floor and sitting with the wood.
  14. Will the spectrum work on the under side of a Pontoon boat? I want it for added protection from the wakes slamming against the underneath. I tried to get underpinning, but not available. Boo! Or would I be best with a bed liner of sorts? This is what I got
  15. Low-end Product LoL Why does it matter? Does anyone know what the jdfhguiahersgv in front of x product stands for? Some yes, most no.
  16. that being said, i think a 1/0 pos/neg would probably yield a higher reading on the dyno. How much? I don't know. I am going to set up a sick ass test bench for all this stuff and have all sorts of options available on it. I will be doing experiments on all sorts of scenario's. I'm definitely tuned in. I don't think people realize on how big of a learning curve this could be for the business itself. I mean, people have ran tests, but this could put a lot of great info out there for people to use. BTW, still haven't gotten the bar apart to install the new plexi and decals. Wifey is excited to see it done
  17. What is the length of the 100.2? Debating on one for my kicks. May 10th still the expected date? ~Mike
