chapo123 Posted July 3, 2010 Report Share Posted July 3, 2010 well the stock ones prob sounded louder cuz they were being pushed more then the power bass ones that arent even to the rms. might not be true buts it the only thing i can think of Quote Steve I don't know why but everytime I see your new paint I want a Dr. Pepper...... is this normal? heres an analogy for you. running a high power stereo without a fuse is like having unprotected sex with that hot chick at the bar with the sketchy sexual history.

TeamHT Posted July 3, 2010 Report Share Posted July 3, 2010 i never understand why people will upgrade the components and then attempt to just run them off the factory. Quote Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
