      15.5? LOL how many banks do you have?

  4. 146.4 sealed out of the trunk at 33hz. Good enough for 2nd place trunk class. Now to just get into the 147-148 range, I've been looking at the results and most 148db trunks take home a place at every show.

      Thanks guys! Im kinda wondering if my car would do good in meca because of how low I peak. I have done ZERO testing. All i did was threw my seats and visors forward and closed my air vents. Did a 80-25hz sweep at half volume. They said between 30 and 35hz I started at 30 doing full tilt burps skipping trace from 30-35. So i think my peak is 33 or 34.

      An awesome score at a fun frequency.. Well done :D

  5. 147.6 at 34hz!!! Too bad it was 12.3v. Damn idle output. Time for a better alternator.

      My pully is already too small. It's causing belt slip at idle.. I need an alternator that can make more power. With out belt slip it does 117amps at idle at 172amps revving.

      For instance. The dc270xp does 190amps at idle and it has a stock size pully that will slip much less but the unit itself makes more power with out requiring it to have a crazy small pully.

      Werd. I ment for that EVENT. But yep, the smaller you go, the less area the less it will stay in contact. Your right. Just time for a new alt. if I was was you I'd do a hair pin/6phase. It's exactly what you need.

  6. 160db for how many minutes? My gf is a boss. That is all. Flavius put on a great hair trick show though! Vid uploading now.

  7. 2 pages of solid updates on the build log. How about some love? ill take a new video for it tomorrow.

  8. 59 lbs will be at my doorstep on Tuesday coming from Tampa Florida! Any guesses :peepwall:

  9. about to go run another set of wires from my 4 channel through my front doors so i can run active… Should be interesting.

  10. After your 8th or 9th revision of your next build, it starts to get realistic :D. True story here.

      I've been sketching shit up for months.

    2. Swordlordboy1234

      Swordlordboy1234

      Well due to the multiplication rule, you should have about 72 sketches to my 8... Since you have 8 rebuilds to my 1 :D

  11. alpha damp is having a blowout sale and going out of business. Code "Half-off" Gets you a 50% discount on their products while supplies last. Wish i had 200 for a shop pack.

      Swordlordboy1234

      I'm sure they did bring it on themselves. But needless to say... We all know its got some nasty thick foil and great adhesive. So if your in the market for bad ass deadener that's where I'd stop :)

  13. andddddd i think a sub speaker wire came a little loose on the terminal cup. Lows hit, and only 1 sub moves. All higher notes work just fine. zzzzzz.. Ill fix tomorrow. FTS. Its raining and i got a headache.

  15. Any SQ / SQL guys have thoughts on illusion audio? I was having a debate today with a shop and they were arguing that illusion was superior to almost any brand I named. Won't mention those here to abide by the rules.

      a lot of the that stuff the original recordings were so god awful all the bass in the world wont help. I mean why do you have to make it sound like you are singing into a plastic fucking cup? Why is there a high-hat and bass and someone rhyming and nothing else? grow some fucking talent! I'm bitching about the artist, not coffee.

      Whoah now. where did that come from? I did have 40 pics uploaded. Much of it was progress. There was a very clear update video. Decided not to post the second video because of redundancy.

    3. Kyblack76

      Kyblack76

      Lol. Sorry Jeff read that wrong. Again, wish I had mids and highs. Good luck man.

      Swordlordboy1234

      No worries bro. Sometimes i type weird. Like skipping thoughts and it can be read wrong. Appreciate it man, i need it.

  18. Anyone else seeing the CT amp dyno test scores on Facebook?

      What keeps you guys going even when your feeling burnt out.?

    3. mrd6

      mrd6

      I think I better question would be does anyone NOT ever feel burnt out at college. I dont know what your major is but when I got my degree in EE there were definitely times were I stopped caring and gave up on certain things. But, 4 years goes by faster than you think. Stick with it, it gets easier after you graduate.

      I workout everyday and plan certain days to do nothing to do with school. they don't come very often but a release is a must to keep a mind on track and sane

      Try using a self taping screw. Stainless. Use same length as XS Power screw.

    4. Swordlordboy1234

      Swordlordboy1234

      Could I re use the same self tapping screw if I had to take the posts in and out? I don't do it every week but I don't think this is the last time I'll touch my rear battery

  21. anyone good with finding wiring/noise issues... i have a interesting one that needs solved in the mid and highs section.

    1. DubNDodge

      I sprayed Noise Elimination spray on mine no issues yet in Central Ohio.

  22. Anyone know about lemon laws with alternators? It isn't mine, but a buddies and it's only 2 months old with 2 breaks so far. In the process of working it out with the company, but I didn't know about the lemon law in different states.

      Swordlordboy1234

      Well I'm in Texas. He is in PA. But the alternator broke legit the first Time. The company blamed it on him having too big of a bass amp for the 170amp alternator they built. But they replaced. Now it's happening again and charging on and off... Just trying to research other option for him incase the company doesn't want to refund. He wants a refund since this has happened twice in 2 months.

      So this is an HO alt?

    4. Dwn4BassAlan

      Dwn4BassAlan

      Yeah, I had an alt in my taurus that went out for no reason, turns out they say 1/1000 is just built bad, and needs to be replaced. It was a stock one they replaced at the dealer, so no charge. But I would bet they will be much more hesitant to cover any H/O alt....

      Swordlordboy1234

      I was holding 12.0 with same electrical as now with Skar 2500 at .5, bad ground, and CCA. Found amazing ground. Held 13.8.. Then upgraded ct2500 at .5 and was back down to 12.4... Then OFC and Xs power got me back to 13.7... Grounds ftw.

  25. are there local stores to get decent priced rage gold? I look locally and see auto zone ect, selling for 70 dollars. Online i find it for 40.. Thoughts? Where do you get your body filler from?
