So an unfortunate event occured... on christmas eve, my dad was showing off my car and he turned the volume up too high just when the audio turned on, and they blew my 2 subwoofers, well, they had gotten damaged, but he ignored any symptoms that was coming up so it ended up blowing after a few minutes of really high volumes. So I bought 2 more subs, but then wondered if my amp was overpowering them a little too much or something, so I ended up buying 2 more subs giving me a total of 4 subwoofers. and currently I've only installed 3 subwoofers in a tri-subwoofer enclosure, and still planning of installing the 4th subwoofer somewhere in my car. With all 3 currently installed in my car, its running at 2250W RMS at 1.33Ohms. I also decided to connect them all up through a board to merge them to a single positive and negative connection.

So that little bridging board really worked our real well and is pretty stable. I thank the people that I saw on here how they did theirs, mine is just not built on the box or something. I didnt feel like installing it on the box itself

After installing those 3 subwoofers, I noticed that my car was making a whole lot of rattling so I decided to install some sound dampener in my car. I ended up getting 100 sq ft of RattleTrap. I planned to install it in the trunk, the rear deck, the trunk lid, all 4 doors, the roof, and the floor.

i failed to take pics of the floor cleaned up but I will take pics once I actually start working on the rattletrap installation on the floor.

I also bought new headlight enclosures that come with Halos and they look amazing. I got the same color HIDs for them but I need to adjust the high beams because they're a little too high

So thats it so far! I still have to install the RattleTrap on the floor and finish up the trunk, but it is all cleaned up and ready for the install but I got sick so Ive postponed it. I also plan on replacing the engine with a DOHC engine so I would have a better engine and be able to do performance parts and install a High Output alternator. I also want to open up my new headlight enclosures and find out how big those halos are so I can install some real CCFL halos that light up red. That way it will be more noticeable when my headlights are on and look more unique.
