2001 mustang GT system rebuild ** fully updated and video added 5/11/13**


Recommended Posts

Hey guys. well after sitting around for a few days and getting bored. i thought id upgrade my stereo system. my old system was 2 12 treo TE wired at 2 ohm on at 350 watts. sound good n all but i could still breath in the car and was bugging me. so i went on a shopping spree online and whatnot. bought a kenwood DD 319, 2 hifionics brutus 2400.1 amps, 100 feet of Xp flex 1/0 wire, 100 sq ft of fatmat and a bunch of other crap... going to be taking pictures of the system rebuild, the new box build, new subs and everything.

of course i bought a DD-1 and SMD hat. heres my daughter reppin the hat

the new subs are treo SSX 12's. dual 2 ohm. going to be running a ported box, ported through the rear deck with the subs firing foward ( towards the rear seat). running 2 optimia batterys and a mechman 270a alt that i bought from jasonjones on here. i'll post more pics as i get more work done it. laying the fatmat tomorrow in the trunk and trunk lid.

have any questions, post them and i'll be sure to answer them guys..

thanks all.

For some reason the trunk likes to rattle like a mofo. I was going to run that fat mat under the seat and under the headliner as well.

Do you plan on sealing off the trunk completely? Or just forwards firing and ported through the rear deck? Either way I'd say deaden that trunk... Those Stangs rattle like a mofo... And btw... GET TO WORK! Needs moar build log pics!

ive been tossing around the ideal of sealing the trunk off. trying to think of the pros and cons of it but as it stands, the subs will be firing foward and ported through the rear deck. sound deadener pics coming up

heres the pics of the sound deadener install. i used fatmat brand. seems to stick really real and easy to form around corners. heat gun helped also. i cleaned all the areas for it with purple power cleaner.
