PressureDynamics Posted October 1, 2014 Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 Alright. I need a some thoughts guys. I'm currently planning to wall off the back half of my 94' S10. Here's my thought. I have a box designed, but haven't put it into play yet. Here's my build list: SKY HIGH CAR AUDIO: 4 Pairs of the 1/0 6 input Set terminals. 4 ANL Fuse Holders (Ring Style) 4 ANL Fuses (250a) 1 500ft. Roll of Blue Primary Wire 12g 2 50ft. Rolls of 1/0 OFC Power/Ground wire (Blue) 1 50ft. Roll of 8g AWG OFC Speaker Wire 10 pack of 1/0 Lugs (Blue/White) A Mini Bulk Pack of the sound deadener (I might need that) DC SOUNDLAB: 4 DC LVL 5 15's 2 DC 5.0k Amps XS POWER 4 XS D3100's And other various odds and ends. I want to know what your guy's thoughts would be on box ideas, mounting, all sorts of things. This is going to be the biggest and most expensive build I've ever done. I'm really excited to get 5 his going, but I'd rather have some good planning before hand. Thanks everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PressureDynamics Posted October 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 Here's where I'm at with the design of the box. It's not 100% yet, but I wanted to wait until I had more input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philrab Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 Can't tell from the pics, but if you're already designed the enclosure to max outside dimensions, you need to heavily consider double and triple layering the inside (at least the front baffle, lots of bracing) and think about whether or not you'll still have enough net airspace to run those Level 5's the way you want to. You may have already considered this, I just can't really tell from the pic. You planning on an alternator upgrade, or just going to try and run a pair of 5K's off batts? 2015 Toyota Tacoma Build Thread 2007 Mazda 3; 5000K HID's, Kenwood Excelon KDC-X997, Infinity Reference 6.5 comps in front and coaxials in the rear doors, JL 320.4 four channel, Rab Designs built ported enclosure with an SA12, Kenwood monoblock, Redline Leater shift boot/e-brake boot/center console cover, JBR short shifter/shifter bushings/rear motor mount.

PressureDynamics Posted October 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 Looking to upgrade the alternator to a DC Power 300. The face will be 2" thick when finished. Floor and back wall as well. I haven't put the baffle into much consideration yet, but more than likely going to go with something a little different. I'll post a picture when I have it rendered. I should have just enough space to do it. Maybe an hour or so on that render. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PressureDynamics Posted October 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 A thought on the baffle. Everything will be rounded of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PressureDynamics Posted October 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 Alright. I'd like to do the dual alt setup, and I don't think a bracket would be to hard to come by. And running 8 batts wouldn't be bad either thinking about it. I could do 7 in the bed in a box and one under the hood. This should be a fun build if I do it little by little.

PressureDynamics Posted October 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 Got the battery box up. Probably 4" flex tube between the bed and the cab for safety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PressureDynamics Posted October 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 Well. Unfortunately do to some issues beyond my control, I will no longer be doing this in my S-10. However, I'm looking into doing something with my other vehicle. I'm saving up my pennies because I've heard BMW installs can be a real pain. Any threads I should look into?
