  1. thanx guys. im sorry if it was confusing, I wrote the article, I have been appointed to do this monthly feature for the website. The car in the feature is for sale.
  2. check it out. http://www.namlish.com/index.php?option=co...1&Itemid=63
  3. thanx guys. i think it came out really nice 2. @kicker - its suede, velvet is really hard to find. theres also a vid here http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...amp;#entry89014
  4. So after alot of blood sweat and tears. Here it is, the new simpler louder setup.
  5. here it is guys, not a impressive score as such, but considering i wasnt even planning on competing and only finished the setup at the comp. its not too bad. 2 12's sealed, 75rms to each woofer, LIL WAYNE - i got them, sealed up on the dash. If you listen closelly you can hear me playing music. I was the only guy to play music at the comp and I took a 5th place http://rapidshare.com/files/24016881/MOV02395.MPG.html
  6. well dude, put 7000 on em and just be very carefull when dailying and at comps turn it up just a lil. headroom is always nice to have about the flared port, yes slinky, thats a very good reason, but you can also flare slot ports, look at steves civic
  7. But remember what zaxfire said. job security, I am the manager at a place that is verging on bankrupcy, and im sorry that I just jumped in there.
  8. the reason its louder is because it is more than likely tuned closer to your cars resonant frequency. I guarantee you that if you have a slot port and an aero port with the same area and exact same smoothness, they will sound identical
  9. port area im not too sure on, I think you increase port area to allow air to escape quicker, thats why it larger port areas work better in spl.
  10. thats why varying lengths have different tuning frequencies. frequency is basically the speed of the air(in a sense) making the air slower decreases the frequency. How do you make the air travel slower?
  11. haha, man, the physics behind a port is real easy. The longer the area air has to travel through, the more friction. More friction causes air to move slower. Slower air equals less "cycles" per second = lower tuning frequency. the diameter of the port though is a really touchy subject and I'm still trying to figure out how to use that properly in my spl builds
  12. thanx, i researched ports and how they work for 2 years, so I can write a pretty indepth article about it. lol
  13. Remember, a port is only a "source" of friction for the escaping air. that being said, the only differences is really smoothness of the port and calculation errors. I can go into detail about why I say they are exactly the same
  14. i was making you an offer, I dont need your attitude young man
