Noobtastic14 Posted August 20, 2012 Report Posted August 20, 2012 The easy way to not blow it, would be to give it rated clean power -Drew I am a United States Military Arts and Crafts Professional. Sand it off, Paint it on. uhoh_45 said: dont be a pussy P give the jeep to drew
Socky Posted August 20, 2012 Report Posted August 20, 2012 I would see how it would go first before changing box, if the woofer has more output i would leave it the same. If its less, a new box is in the making then.

I have some of knu's old 80mil deadner on my trunk lid. And the air I can feel coming out of the sides of the lid. Without sealing it off cause I don't want to spray foam inside my car, would it make a diffrence?

Socky Posted August 25, 2012 Report Posted August 25, 2012 Their are other alternatives, their should be a thread about sealing them off without spray foam, but you could get some plasict wrap and wrap everything in plastic. Then spray it, and remove the plastic so it does not leave the messyness around the trunk if you ever wanted to sale the car.
