  1. Just picked up same battery at a authorized local dealer for 325, Defintely a good price in compairson! Some shops like to move product! Guess moral of the story is shop around!
  2. Hey atleast they host a few db drags! Props to sactown car audio for that! Don't think i'd buy for them but hell least they support competitons.
  3. I call a local shop and ask if they have a kinetic 2400 in stock... Answer: yes I ask how much? Answer: 1000 I say MSRP is 449 Answer: Ya and LOL unbelieveable! I mean ya I hear ya it's a free country I understand shops gota pay bills but only a fool pays double MSRP. Hell I won't pay MSRP...
  4. Thank you sir for your kind comments! When I first started all I wanted was pound in a daily driver! Hell , now I just want to go to some shows! Someone introduced me to competitons (with his constant winning) now i got the competiton bug! Sponsor or not I'll be there....Hopefully a local team will pick me up and keep the tech support coming If not, I'll keep bangin my head around on this forum for knowledge!! Hey did I ever claim I made them? I know who knows spl, he's the right man for the job! I don't know much about SPL. LOL hell you can't throw those boxes they are like 80 lbs apiece!
  5. Your team have any intrest in a CRX sponsoirship? License plate "CRX4SPL" I got a crx thats doin 152 with 2 rf amps.. 154.5 Usaci I compete in Db drag and Usaci. Go to all events within 120 miles. Have a termlab to test in my garage.. Potential to get louder... 152 was just throwin stuff in....
  6. Yeah there's a few cheaper meters out there. One I had used was splmeter.com db2 I think it is. Works up to 150 db. It measures higher then a termlab 6-8 db. It is pretty consistent The best way to get the correct number is the Termlab. It's a hell of a tool when you go to a competiton and u know your tone and where u will be.
  7. when I was 17 I had a sony walkman, Jensen A50 amp and some bootsy 10" trunk boxes, guess we all have to start somewhere. U have a walkman hooked up to all that I used to hear I said yup!
  8. no, I don't think I would dare post pics of what was thrown in their in less then 24 hrs I had cause it wasn't pretty. Needless to say the car had a battery in the hatch with 2 T2000 Amps with these boxes. Took it to the show came home and it all came out in less then a hr including Corona time!
  9. Indeed, As I tested it got a nose bleed.... Meade what will it take to get to project 160?
  10. Can I just add a 2nd siren to a alarm? Anyone ever put sirens in the car? Maybee the trunk? Wouldnt be fun doing what they do with 110db siren screaming!
  11. Wow am I the only one using kenwooD? I have a kvt 717 in my mustang and a mp-922 in my crx. My old Mustang has a mp921. Main reason I go kenwood? The music keg! Hell I got 80 gig that I can't even get half full! U guys go i pod I go music Keg!
  12. I would say your doing ok, I have the alt and spare batterys and more then enough power I can't get past 138 with 2 T1 12" I gave up wasting my time with constant losses. Street B I believe is the class I was in with 2 12" and people were getting 145+. So be prepared unless u like losing 3 db is a uphill battle usually! Good luck!
  13. I have a house in south sac and don't care what neighbors say if needed. Hell I have a termlab as well but imagine meades has more stuff. Meadstyle do u have the software that can figure the reasont freq of a car? I had heard it can do that or am I mistaken?
  14. hmmm I asked same Q... A."Bags (Cans if its a Honda) are gonna run you probably $1000-$1500 and up into the 2's depending on what your trying to do and where you find your parts. Theres so many options out there. Thats just a box of parts and lots of loose plumbing though.....from what ive seen its $4000-$4500 to drop it off and have it all done for you, ready to roll"
  15. Wow your car u installed side ground efx or a body kit and it loses spl? The outside affects it? What if u paint it or wax? Does it always loose spl? Can it gain? Is it a big loss? Does it change the frequency where the whole car vibrates?
  16. Does anyone have any tips for Spl? My last system seemed limited at 140 db. Would like to get a bit higher if possible. So I have a few question. Will areo ports or a bought port get louder the a slot port mdf box? for the dbdrag events how many batterys can u have in a crx? Imagine in higher classes you can have more? Does the rear cargo area of a CRX have to be stock? Is it a half wall if it's not? Another higher class thing? I don't expect to win but just be competitive and have fun cause loosing just sucks and makes you not even want to go. Just thinking I have a chance to get 3rd would be fine.
