The front baffle finally completely isolated from the trunk. With the help of MDF, glue, foam and sound deadener, the front baffle is now completely isolated from the trunk. I have more Second Skin AlphaDamp on the way so i can do all the metal that you see here (that is not covered yet). I didn't take too many pics of the process because i just wanted to get it done. There really wasn't that much gap to seal off anyway so you didn't miss much :DDSC00057-1.jpgDSC00066-1.jpg5be743f0.jpgDSC00067-1.jpg

not the biggest batteries but its all i can do in this car. I am trying not to weigh it down TOO much. Well too much more then i already am. LOL!

Power Distribution is important. I made more terminals then i needed (40) but it is better to have too many then not enough. FYI: all stainless bolts.

Got my remote bottle-opener from Holley. Add that to the list of things that will need to be wired up.

Since the trunk will no doubt get hot, and so will the amps, especially behind plexi-glass, i had to devise an air-managment system. Aka FANS. Most cars have air equalization vents. You know the little vent in the trunk with the rubber flaps that lets air out, but not in. The Lexus has 2 of them. One on each side. I decided to take the driver side vent, and reverse it, allowing the flaps to open when the fan kicks on. It will close when the fan is off. It is up inside the bumper and gets no weather, so no worry's.

Removed and flipped backwards, to allow air in.

DSC00200-1.jpg

106 CFM on the big fans (1 per side), 50 cfm on each of the smaller ones (x3 per side).

Air vent reversed, now i need to get these fans to suck air through it.

DSC00219.jpg

Exhaust on the passenger side.

DSC00220.jpg

Mounted with sheet metal brackets and sealed with Second Skin. The fans don't fit down in that little crevasse so the next best thing was to put them right above it and make it air tight.

DSC00221.jpg

Ran out of Second Skin in the black......had some left over SS from a while back when it was still foil-colored. Same shit just different color. I had just enough to get the job done. I just ordered a bunch more to finish the rest of the car. Should be here tomorrow.
