So the engine keeps cranking at a good speed? Im just trying to rule out a battery or starter. Im assuming you have basic tools? Engines need 3 basic things to run. Compression, spark, and fuel. -Spark is easiest. You can get a 5 dollar spark tester or just take out the plug and touch it to the block to see if it sparks STRONG. It needs to be strong, as in blue. Not orange. Sometimes, something as simple as cleaning off the plugs can temporarily fix the problem. -If you have spark then check for fuel. Pour some straight gas or starter fluid into the intake. If the car starts and runs for a few seconds then you know its a fuel problem. -If those two fail then check compression. A a cheap tester can be useful. Or if the plug hole is within reach then press your finger over the hole and have a buddy crank the engine. If the pressure blows your finger off the hole then compression is assumed to be ok.

I never say the point of expensive headphones. I would rather spend that money on making my car loud! -
I took out the single seat behind the drivers seat in my Ram to fit my box. You only lose one seat. Who likes passengers anyway? And mega cabs have ALOT of room behind the seats. I have seen people put 15's back there. You can fit it.

Why do you want 4 volt so bad? -
Look in OrionStang's build log. He did a nice job.

What kind of features do you want? Pandora? Navi? Bluetooth? USB ports? Narrow it down for us. -
Either investigate yourself. Or Crutchfield will say.

2 Kicker L7 12" Custom Box Build/Idea
blownengine replied to adreano17's topic in Subwoofers / Enclosures
These are my max diminsions. could go a little bigger though. But street bass for l7s are 2.5, spl is 3.25 (per sub). i just want to go with the middle. But 6cuft us big for some round subs, but not for square. Hmmm, I was unaware the specs were that large. To increase port area you need to increase the size of the port opening. But that also affects everything else. So really its alot of plugging in numbers until you get something that you can work with. -

blownengine replied to adreano17's topic in Subwoofers / Enclosures
Good start, but you need more port area. And 6 cubic feet is a bit much for 12's. Are those your max dimensions? -
Wow their amps and subs both look really nice. I would be interested in seeing some prices. And that 6,000 watt RMS rating seems a little risky.
