Acura Rsx build. Advice/opinons.

[ZENADRO]

Im currently deployed and as soon as I get back I want to start my build, so im trying to gather as much information needed. Im lookin for a loud and clean set up and mainly going towards the rockford route.

What I have planned so far.

Set of Rockford Fosgate T2652-s up front.

Set of Rockford PPS4-6 in the rear. (taken out of my hatchback)

-Powered by Rockford t600-4.

Initially was going to be a RF T2D412 but decided to switch to a Sundown Audio Z v.3 12.

-Powered by RF T1500bdcp

-Plan to design/build my own box and want the sub up port back towards the hatch.

Plan on sound deadening the trunk/hatch, and doors.

As far as electrical upgrades. Upgrading to a optima yellow top under the hood. Also doin the big three in knukonceptz 0g. As well as running it to the back. I plan on running a RFC10HB in the back. Then dropping down to 4g into the amps since they dont accept 0g. Would my stock electrical system be able to handle power or would I need another battery in the rear?

Other questions I have.

-Box tuning freq? I plan on 33hz. Good for the sub? I know it recommends 35hz.

-Yellow top under the hood (good/bad)

-Would i fuse from the cap to the amps?

-16g wire fine for the speakers?

-12g/10g/8g for the sub to the amp?

I know I have alot of questions and hopefully you guys could help answer/give me some advice. I just want to make sure i do it right the first time. Appreciate your guy's time.

I think I read somewhere 10g is plenty for sub->amp wiring. You will defiantly want to research what alternator the RSX comes with. Stock probably won't be good enough. For that setup will you defiantly need a 160A alternator, probably more.

Yea, the stock alternator puts out i think 90A.

[Joshex]

Yeah that won't be enough at all. 90ax13.6v=1224w This is how much your alternator would be able to put out on a normal system.

I'd look into a different battery than a yellow top. My opinion.

And I would certainly only go here

Snag a battery relocation kit. For when you "add a battery".

And get a big 3 kit. Used 3 of these kits/products in my Acura. And I won't ever use anything else....

Tell Tony I sent ya.

Any suggestions on what brand as far as a battery?

Appreciate it.

Also what are you plans on sound proofing? I highly recommend doing sound proofing with that much power.
To answer the question on the speaker wire, you will be fine as long as you're not running 50 feet of it from each speaker.
