m1dg3thunt3r Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 (edited) im a little late starting my built here but ill put up what i have. Ive been working on this for almost a year on a minimum wage budget and im only 18, so between school, work and friends theres not alot of time for bass, but ive learned to make time. Original Setup one year ago Had 2 old kenwood subs with 125 watts going to each sub off a stereo amp, i had no clue about car audio when i installed this, very poor job but it gets better. Turned subs around and mounted the amp on a rock mounted to the metal beneath the rear deck Final product of old setup Around Summer of 2010 i decided to upgrade everything when i got my new car after my old one died Got a new car Now for some beat in the new car Edited April 7, 2011 by m1dg3thunt3r Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m1dg3thunt3r Posted April 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 (edited) Cleaned outside of engine and shined everything up when i got it Bought a ported box from a local shop 1.4 cu ft per chamber at 42ish hz, i know not the best move i could of done for my brand new dual 2 ohm 12" type r's i bought Mounting subs in box, bad quality photo, sorry about that Smart enough to order grills for the subs because its daily driver and I still want to put things in my trunk New vs. Old Installed new Alpine Mrp-M1000 in the new car with the subs. Used Audison Connection wiring all through out Edited April 7, 2011 by m1dg3thunt3r Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m1dg3thunt3r Posted April 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 Saved up enough money to finally sound deaden the trunk. Put in 40 sq ft of Hushmat in one afternoon Next is the big three I have some pics now of where i grounded the engine but i will take some pictures tomorrow of all the wires ran Ive been looking around online and so far from what ive seen, im the only person that i know of that successfully did the big three on a v6 passat without removing the front end of the car, im not 100% but when i was looking it up i never saw anyone that successfully did it without removing the front end.

m1dg3thunt3r Posted April 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 Give em your opinions and feedback because im always looking to improve. I started this build on here to hopefully win system of the month for april 2011 because the only thing stopping me from upgrading to larger amps and multiple amps for speakers is my alternator. Small 120 amp alts and lack of disposable income have made it so i cant do what i want with my car. but maybe if i won i would have the motivation to upgrade more. Was looking to get a XS Power 2700d and an Audioque AQ2200 to run my type r's at 2 ohms, and eventually larger better subs. I am actually going to pick up my custom box from Davetheboxguy tomorrow and i will update once i get the box in. 2.0 cu ft per sub with a 6" aeroport at 32 hz will hopefully give me that boost ive been looking for because alot of people have been been dissing my box because its too small and tuned too high for what i want, so ill let you know tomorrow thanks for looking.
