TigerTony Posted June 20, 2012 Report Posted June 20, 2012 Lol. That's funny shit right there. I think it was my gf's car that was just plain the fuck out retarded when it came to the battery. I think it was her Pontiac g6. The battery is like buried under every damn thing they could throw at it. I hate whoever decided to put the battery in my buick century. "LETS PUT A BAR STRAIGHT OVER THE BATTERY. THEN LETS JAM IN THE FUSE BOX RIGHT ABOVE IT! " -_____- Its such hell trying to change the battery. Quote
siucsaluki11 Posted June 21, 2012 Author Report Posted June 21, 2012 (edited) Well, i got it in finally, and put the new amp in, put the gains between 1/4 and 1/3, drove around, sounds right. Tomorrow ill burn a disc with a 50 Hz tone at -0dB and actually set my gains properly. (as well as you can without a DD-1 or an o-scope) Went to advanced auto parts, got one of thesehttp://shop.advancea..._A|GRP2005_____ Here it is, with everything back in under the hood, its much smaller in depth than the OEM battery, but a bit taller, and roughly the same width. The cable from the battery to the fuse holder to the back is attached to the binding post rather than the new terminal i bought (i drilled the ring terminal out to 3/8" and just screwed the binding post on right through it), and its hidden under the factory air intake. That fuse holder I'm surprised is still there. I made it out of 1/4" aluminum bar stock we had laying around at home, held in place with some self tapping screws iirc. I need to get the big 3 done....but i went for a 20-30min drive, blasted some jeezy, love and lights, amon tobin (had to cover a few different genres), and everything sounded good, lights never dimmed, and the amp didn't even get warm to the touch. When i got home, i shut my car off right away and started it right away, just to see how it held up....My old battery would have sat there for a few seconds cranking, this fired right up....this battery is a beast. Now i just need to get the big 3 done....then maybe down the line, new box, new subs, take the amp down to 1 ohm instead of the 2 its at now Edited June 21, 2012 by siucsaluki11 Quote woman..cant live with em...cant shoot em...guess were all fucked You might be a Redneck if you use your leftover gutters for a speaker box port...
