Finally, the Saab. This car is my baby, it's a 5speed turbo 2.3l hatchback. At first I was just going to give it more power, but it has 173000 miles so it's not really worth it. The car has an awesome interior for acoustics so I started out wanting to have major SPL, then I heard what SQ is and well, this is what it's yielding...

First build

stock electrical

4g power/ground

Scosche RCAs/Speaker wire

Dual xdvd9101 Head Unit

Pyramid EQ

Dual Midrange, Clarion Tweeters

Dual XPA4640

box - 2 chamber 3.2 cubes each tuned to 36 Hz

2 JBL GTO1504D's

Lanzar Vibe286

Pics?

First time install, done during a COLD february.

Box rebuild...

New box was 3.5 cubic feet 16sq. in. of port, tuned to 25hz It was an experiment to see if I could make a box to fit in the cargo cover spot.

that trunk lid was different.

lol, Thanks! I did that one day screwing around. I had to make custom brackets for the lift cylinder and just used barn style hinges from menards to do it. I did it all for under $25, lol.

When i ran it under the car, I ran it inside of PVC piping to protect it from the elements.

My alternator, sure it's just a stock one, but it'll make it double the power until I get 2 H/O alternators.
