How loud is my car??

Hi, I was wondering how loud you think my car gets. I really can only go off of the DB charts and maybe some youtube videos and Rockford's R.A.T.S. website.

I was running 2 12" P2s in a ported box facing forward partially sealed off from the trunk. Running them off a T1500-1bdCP @ 4 ohms (1000watts). It got pretty loud rolling my passenger window down a couple inches but I really don't know how loud.

Next, I recently have made a "high output" box from Rockford's recommendations for the T0d415. I'm currently running it at 8 ohms on the T1500 for now. It is facing the rear of my trunk as close to the back as possible. My backseat does not fold down but has a compartment door in the seat for access to the trunk. How loud would this be? (Could assume I'll wire it to 2 ohms in the future [1500 watts]).

This is in my 98 Chrysler Concorde off a stock 130 amp alt with Kicker 0 AWG for power.

Any info and maybe even advice would be greatly appreciated!

Also, 2 12s were ported at 40 htz and the 15" at 38 htz.

I'm not looking for an exact answer, just merely a general guess or range of DBs from personal experiences.

Nobody can guess how loud it is. Too many factors go into it

This.

Your best bet would be to find somebody in your area with a TermLab.

I couldn't find anybody near you with one on the map on this thread: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/137758-smd-audio-tools-map/

There might be some shops or somebody else not listed that might have one.

Alright, I haven't looked around too hard but I'm pretty sure there's not a whole lot where I am. Thanks for the map anyway.

i say mid to high 30s maybe low 40s. that box is gonna have to small of port area and don't run 1500watts to that speaker. its rated at what? 600rms?? it doesn't handle heat as well, i wouldn't recommend over 800-1000rms.

t1500bdcp

2 t2d4 15"

1 t600.4

1 t400.2

1 set p1 tweets

singer alt, tons of wiring, smd vm-1, 80prs, back seat delete, still in the works, aiming for a 145-147 with the ability to play 25hz up to 50hz.
