stock battery, 6 years old!!! big azz bat group 49 i think.

added Knu OFC for 1 part of the big 3 directly to frame. all stock electrical was slightly smaller than 4 gauge wire some euro system maybe?

size of bat. i have medium to large hands. DD c2c sitting in the spare tire. was used for front stage. ill get to that later.

0 gauge Knu CCA to amp( this is later changed in current 950 build)

good day to rewire the whole car!!!

just wait there is more

4 gauge Knu OFC run from alt positive to stock bat positive in rear. stock battery is in the trunk!! sorry for poor quality pics they will get better.

ran that line all through car under carpet and trim panels

this device i use to get aux inputs to my stock headunit. it connects to where stock cd player would go.

first aid compartment on rear deck looks like a good spot for highs amp!! JL XD400/4 will go in there!!

more wiring time!! it always goes later than you expect. then when you get close you want to get it done!!

running wires under carpet. least favorite thing to do.

another amp shot wiring will be cleaned up.

bass knob

my front stage is composed of Polk MM6501 component sets which are rated at 125 rms peak 250. no pics of woofers sorry guys.

rear deck. I have 2 Polk MM651 coax and 2 DD W6.5 midbass drivers.

So to sum it up. At this point I had the big 3 done. the 3rd line of the big 3( the engine block to ground) i didnt take a pic of. it is underneath car going from tranny to frame which is where the stock ground was.

so big 3 done, 2 DD 2510 D2 SC in 1.5 cubes net a piece tuned at 37 hz with 16 in of port per cube!! JL 400/4 running rear deck (2 polk mm651 and 2 DD midbass W6.5) then I had DD c2c running front stage (roughly 140 rms to each side for front stage) (and about 75 rms to my rear stage on each speaker.

i was happy but i wanted more. the 10s sounded good but i just needed to be louder.

anyway i had a pair of type r 10s laying around and before i sold both pairs of 10s i had to Term Lab both. here are some pics of the type rs

same boxes as the DD boxes i just spray painted black to sell

termlab results found here for both DD and alpines in my trunk car!!:
