  1. i don't think welding cable would hurt nothing, i use semi battery cable (2 gauge) for all my power and ground and its all fine, the welding wire is prolly even better if its bigger gauge i would think since it does handle alot of amps and volts just my thinking anyways take it for what you will
  2. well the front board didn't come out well at all so no counter sunk subs for me, maybe next box i build i'll have router for. oh well box is still there thats the main part i guess not bad for first box build i think will post pics in few days when i get it all finshed with the under coating and bed liner and subs in
  3. i would love to have it but my amp would do nothing for that beast! and can't afford new speaker and new amp lol or i would so want it GL
  4. turbo goes befor the intercooler then to the intake and run the stuff for the oil and i beleave you should be all set..... never put one on a mower befor so might have to do some other stuff too not sure
  5. still got to make the front board yet but i need someone to help with that with having to cut spot for the port and both subs and get the holes all even i don't trust myself with that yet not till i get a router and make few more boxes but heres few pics of my putting on the finsh to everthing but the front of the box
  6. he said it best what the big 3 is go to that link and it will walk you thru it step by step
  7. most alts are 2 bolts main to take it off bolt for power wire and a plug on the back its pretty easy to do if but if you don't feel you can do it yourself prolly best to have someone to do it for you friend that works on cars alot or pro as for price not sure myself i still run stock alt
  8. you'll prolly want to do the big 3 upgrade also to take advantage of the bigger amp alt
  9. yes + to +, - to - or - to frame - to frame if you have full frame not sub frame sub frame better run both power and ground full to 2nd battery
  10. this is how to hook one up. as for if it helps well thats a good question i've heard some say yes and some say no. i have a rf 1 fraud cap but no volt meter so not sure if it helps but i know it holds one hell of alot of power even my small on fused some 4 gauge wire together one day when i was un hooking it and the wires touched :/
  11. power acoustik are some very cheap amps and still good amps in my eyes atleast ummm maybe a 2 channel amp might do job, i'll keep eye out for ya if someone else doesn't find one for ya
  12. i don't know much about the subs you got but i had my 2 10's in 1 cft sealed box was ok then put them in a 1.6cft sealed box and sounded alot better now they going into 2.6 cft ported box and hoping they sound even better, i would say try and do the max cft the subs are rated for if they say max 1cft per sub 4cft box should make them sound really nice, might be better if you could go even bigger? i'm not sure i've always stuck close to what the sub was rated for
  13. 3cft? wow thats kinda small for 4 12's i would think my 2 10's are ideal in 1.6cft sealed box no sure about your subs but just thinking 2 12 prolly be nice at 2cft? so 4 and 4cft?
  14. few pictures of my 5 and half month old baby girl playing with daddy's sub box she been helping daddy on and off the whole time if it was safe for her to be out there with me aka no dust or glue fumes
  15. i know the openings little small but with them being 10" high i didn't think 1/4" would matter all to much not with 10" subs atleast i was going to make them the full 2" like the main port but woulda messed up my chambers cubes :/ first box so kinda learning yet and testing at same time anyways this is little pic top view of how the port is between the 2 chambers remember its all 10" high as well
  16. each chamber is 1.3 cubes each opening of chamber to port is 1 3/4" wide 10" high then the main port is 2" wide 10"inches high 13 1/4" long i'll post i 3d rendering of how i designed the port i just hope math is done right lol
  17. you looking for mono amp or 2 channel for the subs? cuz i got this amp and its little over your price but it has alot of power and is 1 ohm stable and from my experince its a good amp http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_14639_...MF2000-1D-.html EDIT: had to fix link
  18. almost done back is all screwed on, inside chambers all silconed, just got to make front plate so subs are sunk into the box few pics of me test fitting one of the subs makering holes to pre drill for sub screws
  19. little more done not much long now befor box will be ready to use all rough sanded down and top and bottom screwed in place to make it stronger all screws per drilled and counter sinked not taking any chances on wood spiltting inside of chambers silconed to help seal any cracks glue might have missed glueing back in place
  20. not sure on finsh yet once i get is all sanded and routered i might to like a bed liner type of coating maybe or carpet i want something that can take a beating since box will be in back of my jeep and i tend to carry chains tools and what ever else family has me put back there on and i want to put bolts out the back for speaker hook ups not that i will be changing ohm load or nothing just trying to take cheaper route right now on this box i planned on 1/4" bolts what size eyelets (sorry for spelling) would i need to get to go over the bolts? or should i switch to a 5/16" bolt then what eyelet size would i need for those?
  21. ok box is for 2 alpine type-r 10's 1.3 cubes per chamber ported to 33hz if i did math right box will be 30" wide 14" high and 16.5" deep out of 3/4" mdf not the best made box in the world but its coming together better then i planned on even tho some of the cuts at off was using very old table saw :/ anyways heres some pictures of it of where its at right now sorry i forgot to take pics befor this point been busy in yard and with kid plus trying to do this all at same time back of the box back of box close up on port where is it opens to each chamber front of the box front of box close up on port opening
  22. ok i seen some of this stuff so far and its cool as hell how you can do this stuff so i would like to try it with my jeep would like to see some 26's on it tint the windows little more and black out the tail lights please and no rush for this when ever you get time thanks
  23. well sorry i'm not a pro at this i suppose you are? not everyone can be as prefect as you. as far as i knew a 4 channel amp could only run 2 ohms on all channels or 4 ohms on all channels my bad for not knowning that 2 channels could be 2 ohms and 2 channels could be 4 ohms and given the fact he wasn't sure if these speakers are single or duel 2 ohms voice coils atleast she never said for sure in this post what they were besides for saying he thinks they are dual 2 ohms coils. we are all here to learn doesn't mean we got to listen to dick heads that know more i was just trying to help the guy out using what i know. and since not many were trying to help him i'm pretty sure hes greatful for me atleast trying to help. from now on everyone that needs to ask something just pm boon since hes the pro at this stuff don't bother posting on forum just pm him and he'll tell you 100% just how to do it god what a dick to be so rude about it
  24. if they are single 2ohm coils then you would have to run them like this off one 4ohm channel + from 4ohm to + on one of the speakers - on that speaker to + of other speaker then - on that speaker back to - from the 4 ohm its series wiring still just useing 2 speakers svc instead of one dvc speaker and if they are single voice coils then you would need amp for front and rear since i don't know any amps that 2 channels can be 2 ohms and other 2 be 4 ohms now if they are dual voice coils hopefully they are, would be best thing for you as you could run one 4 channnel amp at 4 ohms hooking the front speakers up as normal and hooking each rear up in series to their own channels on the amp and all the speakers would be getting the right ohms to them but will need to watch out to make sure your not puching to many watts to any one of the speakers as they are running at different ohms makes finding one 4 channel amp having just enough to power all the speakers well with out giving them to much so really it all depens on those rear speakers if they are dvc or svc hope this helps
