The names' Brodie but my friends call be B-Rod

I am a junior at Puyallup high school. My profession is making cars faster, nicer, and louder out the trunk ;)

Right now I do not have a big boomin' system because well.. I have more important stuff to pay for, so I heard about stevemeadedesigns.com and how you can enter and TRY to win bigger & better stuff for your car and fell in love :) anyways...

I drive a 1987 honda accord lxi w/ a 2 liter SOHC non-vtec :( but she still screams! In the back are two 10 inch rockford fosgate P2 punch's in a new scosche slot ported box. They're powered off a JBL CS series amp that runs 460 watts max (nothing big yet)and that runs off my new Performance Teknique 2 farad capacitor. Im currently trying to save up money for a new battery because the one I have now is TOAST! haha.

Here are some pics of the build! & yes my camera is horrible for quality!! better ones to come.

Bought my new 2 farad capacitor today! getting ready for a day of wiring & installing

Thinking of ideas on how to mount & wire this baby!

My old box before I tore her down & set a flame to her. She is now a pile of ash in my backyard.

My old Blaupunkt 600 watts max amp. i cooked her good haha. she wasnt a very good quality amp though.

when I had the old amp. I wired a blue LED inside her to make her stand out a little more
