glockman513 Posted January 9, 2013 Report Posted January 9, 2013 I need a used car, putting way too many miles on the Camaro. I want something I can build out with good electrical. Preferably good gas mileage, and reliable. Hatchback? 4 door? What type of cars lend themselves best to competition level systems? I wouldn't be opposed to a mini truck either and doing blow through. If you're feeling DOWN & OUT, it's time to get UP & IN
FosgateLife Posted January 9, 2013 Report Posted January 9, 2013 Volvo. My S40 is loud as HELL. Face it in the cabin, seal it off. Volvo's are GREAT cars. Very reliable. 25-35 mpg depending on what you get. Older models people use them to drag race over in Europe. They have potential to be fast as F*CK cars, and Loud as BALLS. 5-Cylinders FTW!!!!!! 2007 Volvo S40 2.4i (no turbo )(Soon XS Power D2400) Stock battery for nowRockford Fosgate 4 gaugeAudioque 6.5" Mid Bass (front)Rockford Fosgate T1 Tweets (front)Rockford Fosgate T2 6.5" Mids (rear)Rockford Fosgats T600-4 (Mids and highs)Rockford Fosgate P3001Fi SSD 12" with PSI recone, building box<p>400 watts, 139.3 @ 42 hz , in the kick window open.

n8ball2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Report Posted January 9, 2013 what are your system goals. I picture good electrical as multiple alts and six plus batts. Your definition may be different than mine. Ive always liked the older civic hatches.
