  1. Your car uses a group 124R battery from the factory. The measurements are essentially the same as the D3400 except the positive is on the opposite side. Many times you can drop a D3400 in that spot and use the 555 I-BAR kit with the starting terminals closest to the rear of the battery and the cables will still reach and work just fine ;)

    how much does a d3400 cost. i can only find d3100's. will a d5100 fit.
  2. I would suggest replacing your starting battery with an equal sized XS Power (likely a D3400) and running a D680 in the rear right next to the amp as a little extra supplement to the amp. With the DC Power 270xp and these two batteries you will be in great shape!

    i drive a 2007 kia optima with the 2.4l 4 cyliner motor. i don't think the 3400 will fit.

  3. what is the best way to cut the holes for the l7's, i have one 12 now but want to make a 2 12 enclosure. the first time i justed a jig saw. but it didn't like the corners to much. also i was wondering if anyone know what kinda db i would get from a 3 to 4 cubic foot box with a slot vent and the subs facing up on a RF t1500bd

  4. Actually, the XS Power D680 (same size as above) will produce much more power than 100 1 farad capacitors, and is good for up to 1,000W of power! Not to mention big supporters of SMD :)

    They can also be purchased through Mechman, Darvex, ***, and many others trusted supporters of SMD ;)

    i was going for two kicker l7's for now with the t1500bd from RF. what battery do you suggest for that. i called dc power yesterday and they said that they can make me a 270xp for my car. with that do you think i need to charge the second batt at all or do you think the alt should do the trick.

  5. I know that I will be asking some stupid questions about batteries but I am kind new to the whole thing. Right now I have a stock batt, a 12 kicker l7, a 3 farad cap and running about 900 watts rms. I want to upgrade to 2 12's, a bigger ported box and a RF t1500bd. I was wondering if I should get a large farad cap or should I go with a second battery. If I go with a second batt do I have to charge it? Or should I run another wire from my alt to it. If I do that will it drain my alt? I only have a stock alt because no one makes a Ho one. By the way it's a 2007 KIA optima 4 cylinder if anyone knows of any alts. Any support would be greatly appreciated.
