It'll give ya a lot more loving miles too. It's awesome how well a high mileage vehicle performs when properly maintained. /endthreadjack

I did switch the truck over to full synthetic oil. A couple weeks ago I pulled the MAF out and throttle body out to give it a through cleaning. Also recently I put a new battery and starter in which are all normal wear and tear type things in my opinion anyway.

One update for today. Got my Rockford Fosgate 1/0 Dual amp install kit. Moving forward a little at a time. I have more coming this week. When I picked this install kit up my first thought was, damn this is a heavy ass install kit.

More items came in today. 12 gauge OFC speaker wire, 3" flared port and some Stinger 1/0 wire guides. But most importantly I got something really nice for a change. I was hesitant on spending the money on them but decided to get it done the way I really want it.

Hertz HSK 165XL's

Still have more stuff on the way. Will post more updates hopefully tomorrow on parts for the build.

I would like to thank evermaxx for hooking me up with the Hertz HSK 165xl's.

I cant wait to hear them either. Unfortunately I probably have another 2 months before I have everything I need to do the build.

I suppose I could just get the doors done. I will have everything I need for that.

Here is the 1/0 Stinger clips and the 12 gauge speaker wire

This is not only the most expensive door speakers I have ever bought but the fist set of components I will be installing.

I imagine the difference between going from a Rockford Fosgate power 6x8 in the doors to these will be night and day.

I am planing on powering them with a Fosgate Punch 800.2.

Question: How do you DD-1 the amp when you have a lot of head room so you dont over power the components?

I dont have a DD-1 yet but that is on my list to get next.
