  1. if you are not trying to compete than dont worry about #s. just worry about what sounds good.
  2. asking that question on here is only going to get a dozen different answers. you have to be more specific with your budget, vehical, musical preferenses how long your commute is, do you plan on competing, and oh yea your budget
  3. a box for 2 "monster 15s" about 4.5 cubes. a box for 4 12's about the same. id say go for the cone area
  4. if you truly have anything over about 400hp you should be able to lay tracks till the tread burns off without a break stand. i had an old K5 once with about 400-450 and with the posi and 35" tires i could do a rolling start and at about 3k the back would break loose. if i happened to be in a turn it was all bad. So if you want to back up your claim vids of performace are a must. and a naturally aspirated all engine 600hp BBC. you would have to have really high compression and about 106-114 octane to run right. also the stock diameter exhaust and iron manifolds not worthy of breathing needs.
  5. dont know how many he replaed but remember that on those engines the injector rail is inside of the intake manifold so ther is a lot o R&R. prob about 3-4hrs at 80-90- per hour soooo
  6. the way i look at it is it is something that you use anyways and it cant allow you to get things you dont need. i use one of my cards just for gas so that there is always positive credit happening. when you get the bill dont fall into (the minimun payment) scam. just pay it off.
  7. get a gas card. evrey time you get gas put that amount of money in an envelope so when the bill comes you have the money to pay it off each month.
  8. sounds like there is a miss and id bet you have about 300 at the flywheel.
  9. what he means is do not make your corners "a corner" use a 3 in hole saw at all 4 corners of your cut-out. otherwise the boot will not mount right. it is impregnated with steel so it needs round corners. make sure the boot is accordian style not a compression style
  10. had about 800 in my geo metro 3 cyl. 50 hp stock. felt like a lawn mower engine. took abit of effort to climb those pesky overpasses. if you balance the weight good it will just feel "softer than empty" but if your weight is all behind the rear axle you will be real light in the stearing which is not good.
  11. be patient. the time will come. these still are in test phase if I recall
  12. after watching that video, i feel i can take on the world!!!!!!
  13. never overfuse your wire capability he better run atleast /00 for that much wattage
  14. with todays high power systems an iso can actually harm you. it would be continually swithching back and forth and also cause extra wear on the alt. where you might use one.....lets pretend you dont have any amps just a deck and spks. wire in the isolator for main battery and auxilary batery. you go camping shut off the vehical and fall asleep drunk while fishing with the radio on(first youve made sure to be in acc not ignition position on the key) now you wake up and are able to start the truck because your starting battery was not drained. do this too many times and alternator dies because as soon as it starts it switches back to aux and spikes because it has to try to charge a dead battery. not good
  15. anyone have a tunnel ram, oval port. dual quad
  16. hell probably bring a little bassracer
  17. gatta pick up the wife at the airport tomarrow night but if the show lets out early enough??? but we still drinkin tonight come up bring a sleeping bag
  18. time to start drinking whos with me
  19. fuse protect the power sources, never over fuse what your wire can handle. for example if you use 8 gauge wire...it is rated for about 60 amps of current. if you put a 150 amp fuse, the wire will start to melt before the fuse pops. resulting in possible fire. yes fosgate has 500 amp fuses i use a shitload of them in my truck to protect the amps, and the batteries. i need that size because i have 12k in power which results in a possible 1500 amps of draw at full tilt
  20. you know you want some of those l6 for your truck
