I'd say its a heat shield. My Del Sol did the same thing, took off the cat and the heat shield fell off into pieces then just put it back with new bolts from O' Reilly due to the originals being so rusted Edit: The rattling that is. I dont know about the O2 sensor. Im no mechanic either but my o2 sensor is right on top of my cat under the chassis

Im looking into getting this amp to run 2 8" RF P1's but im going to be upgrading to RE RFX8's soon Does anyone have any experience with this amp? or anything similar. its CEA compliant but i cant find any reviews on it http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_44495_Hifonics-ZRX500.2.html thanks

not to be rude or anything but why Kenwood?

ok thanks i will go with a sealed box then.

even if its a common chamber?

side question, for a common chamber ported box what should i do the volume to, could i use the recommended ported volume out of just one of the subs or do i have to double it. aka if a subs rec. ported volume was like 1ft^3 would you build the box to 1ft^3 or 2ft^3? by the way i have decided to go with this: http://www.vminnovations.com/Product_14488/MTX-TR5510-04-Thunder-10-Inch-600-Watt-Single-4-Ohm-Subwoofers-Pair-.html 2 mtx tr5510-04, the pack of 2 is only $80 just wondering for the box, that decides whether i go with ported or sealed

how does the P2 stack up against the: re rex 8 ($50) kicker comp 8 (2 for $100) infinity reference (2 for $120) kicker cvt ($75) mtx rts8 ($65) RF p1 ($60) or the polk db8 ($60) and now this turns into a VS. thread.... which as most of us know are no-no's so before this turns into a battle of the brands, just pick the one that has the highest RMS power handling. you're not gonna hear a difference between subs in that price range and im not trying to say whats better i just honestly asked what was the difference in them. all i see through comparison is very minute differences

its all good i figured it would come down to more brand association. im deciding between the kicker comp 8's infinity reference 8's or the fosgate p1 8's (i would get the p2s but the d2 are $80

ho how does the P2 stack up against the: re rex 8 ($50) kicker comp 8 (2 for $100) infinity reference (2 for $120) kicker cvt ($75) mtx rts8 ($65) RF p1 ($60) or the polk db8 ($60)

the dc looks good but you cant get them online can you? and there is no dealer in my area. and i think im going to go with 2 8's. im not sure what 8's though. the SA's are a little pricy for my setup if im going to get 8's i dont want to have to throw a ton of power at them so <500 watts since the alpine makes my lights dim as is, my car has a small alternator. do you think id be able to get 2 decent 8's for about 130-160?

ok only thing is getting 2 of the 8's will put me at 270 plus i would need a bigger amp.

im thinking about the sa-8's and the sa-10. so should i go 2 8's or 1 10? and ive seen the sa-8v2 is coming out. would that be a good investment?

so budget i wanna keep the sub under or close to $200 dems: 34 w 9 h 12 d it will probably be ported if i have the room

I need to find a sub or 2 that gets loud but box size is an issue. i have a max of 1.7 cubes so im thinking a 10 or 2 8's? 10 is the max i can go in diameter. im going to be upgrading amps depending on the subs i get, my current amp is a Alpine MRP-500 500rms @ 2ohm im welcome to any suggestions just nothing ridiculous.

and the port just for the length would be too long and would run into the sub so i had to knock off like 7 inches by doing another l

hey man im sorry, next time ill do that. this is the biggest box i can put in the area though so i just wondered if anyone had L7 exp. and could tell me how this would work out

can someone tell me if this design would work out well. its for a 10" kicker L7 going in a Honda Del Sol http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?9t1hooy5gm9a0i9 thanks!

im looking at the audioque subs and besides the difference in power is the HDC 3.0 going to be very noticable for an extra $100 compared to the sdc 2.5 12?

to be honest i dont have anything against a 15, i just figured i would need a larger box for it plus im not sure if the cone would fit in between the seats like my 10 does edit: i think that ill stick with a 12 so i can use a smaller box. both those 15's require ~2.5 and ive got a little under 3 totall, along with port displacement and sub displacement i figure im going to be under 2.5ish

which 12, the AQ im assuming? and i would run 2 10s but i would have trouble with the box, with the 8's i could fire up 10's i couldnt so they would be running into the seats alpine mrp-500 and an ssl 1200.2

i made 2 boxes for the l7, a sealed and a ported, i will end up selling those with the sub so i figure i can probably get close to 200 out of that along with a little extra i have to spend on it, i dont have a ton to drop on car audio stuff but i wanted a bit of an upgrade to what i have now, i can probably save up to 300 if needed, i just want to get loud in a little car

id say around 200 - 250, ill probably sell my L7 to fund the new sub along with the 2 boxes i made for it

after looking around a bunch im down to this list http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_27312_RE-Audio-SEX12D4.html http://www.audioque.com/Street-Duty-SDC25-12-D4-Subwoofer_p_11.html http://skaraudio.com/index.php/products/vvx-8.html http://www.sundownaudio.com/index.php/products/item/sa-8-subwoofer.html?category_id=3 im not trying to do a vs thread but i just wondered which would be the loudest out of these, 1 of the 12 or 2 of the 8's of if you have any other recommendations, i have 2 amps so i have a couple options- http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_12018_Alpine-MRP-M500.html http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_23048_SoundStorm-SSL-EV2.1200.html

about 38" x 18" x 10" whatever that converts to in cubes
