mrd6 Posted August 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 Dude the back came out awesome! What amps are you looking at getting? How much power total? Well....I had been keeping this a secret but I think everyone I was trying to keep it a secret from knows already lol That was just 1 of 4 Plan is a single 3500 @ .5 per zv4...we will see if they can handle it. Amps will be fine but I don't have much rise so the subs might not be too happy, we shall see. Your build is sick man. Tuned in to see what's next. Thank you sir! You'll be happy you did. Its about to get good. Looks super awesome. You have a hell of a bank Getting there! <3 caps So much. I dropped from 14.4 to 13. on a burp with the one sundown before. With the caps....I drop to 14.0. I can't wait to put the rest of them in with all the amps and see how they start working once I drop down into the battery reserve. Oh and yeah I'm a dumbass. I wasn't getting signal to my sub RCAs because........ wait for it ........My PAC-LC1 was turned down from when I was testing with the TL Now that things are playing, it is awesome. Voltage is great, things are loud for what they are, all is good with the world lol. These next few days are going to be spent seeing just how loud I can get things with the single 3.5k. We were at 153.4 sealed on the dash at 30hz before. I am testing a new front port and adding the 4 banks of caps. May try a few other things, we shall see where we end up. Then, I will be putting in the rest of the amps and caps in time to travel to BC for the IASCA Western Canadian Finals 3x on the 24th. Edit: checked my notebook, edited voltages lol My Build Log: http://www.stevemead...-sundown-power/ Team NorthWestSPL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UKSQguy Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 Awesome build man. I'm tempted to try something with caps soon but i need to really weigh up the cost vs actual benefit. We don't seem to use them in the UK so i'd have to research the pros and cons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like fecupe2001 on here said he had to raise port area once he added more power. 2006 Ford Explorer 2 Team AA/Sundown 15s 6th order Ct Sounds 7k 4 PRV Mr500 8s Rockford p1000-2 Team Subsonic Lows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrd6 Posted August 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 ^You're 100% correct, I'll need to do more testing once I get things on full power. This last front port I am testing is going to be tuned much lower than the others I have tried, so I'm mostly just testing the concept for now and then if it works, i'll start really testing on full power. I also really just want to see how loud I can get things on low power, if the port works like I am hoping it will, I should be into the 154s sealed with only 3.5k.

We don't seem to use them in the UK so i'd have to research the pros and cons. They are just starting to become more "mainstream" here in competition. Benefits are higher operating voltages and huge weight savings. Simply put, caps like these will help any system hold higher voltage for longer. Do your research tho, you'll like what you read. nice work!! im loving every bit of it Thank you!
