fecupe2001 Posted June 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 As promised, every gain and loss tested so far on a single post, one thing for you people to remember with this thread is that these gains in spl arent gonna be universal, i know there are gonna be some people in this thread who are going to want to go outside and do all this stuff to their car without testing, for those people i say to just remember that what gains in one persons car might lose in another, all boxes, subs and cars are different, for example my explorer raises 0.5 dbs with folding down the sunvisors but my suzuki swift drops 0.3 dbs by doing that, said that, let´s proceed: Gain: - Moving box around the trunk until i found the sweet spot: 0.5 dbs - Changing box size until i found the best one: 2.2 dbs - Removing sub´s boot: 0.1 dbs - Negative wire run from battery to amp instead of grounding it to the car: 0.3 dbs - 2 extra batteries: 0.2 dbs (depend on the application, i was using SMALL power). - Printing Vinyl inside the box to make it smooth: 0.4 dbs - PVC round over on the pressure point of the box: 0.2 dbs - Extertnal flare on an aeroport: 0.9 dbs - Internal flare on an aeroport: 0.7 dbs - Duct taped old screws holes on the box: 0.3 dbs - Sunvisors folded down: 0.5 dbs - Moving front seats all the way forward: 0.7 dbs - Taking out floor mats: 0.1 dbs - Front seats vertically: 0.3 dbs - Center console empty and open: 0.2 dbs - Covering the sub´s pole vent hole: 0.14 dbs - Duct tape around the sub: 0.25 dbs - Using 8 gauge from sub to amp instead of a POS wire: 0.22 dbs - Cooling the cabin with the a/a: 0.45 dbs - Rounding the sub hole: 0.28 dbs - Rounding the external edges of the box: 0.17 dbs - Armor all the whole interior of the car: 0.06 dbs Lost - Raising tuning: 0.3 dbs, this depends entirely on the car!! - Installing 45´s on non pressure points of the box: 0.4 dbs - Steering wheel at lowest position: 0.2 dbs - Having 2 round ports with different sizes: 0.5 dbs - Printing vinyl outside the box: 0.3 dbs - PVC roundover outside the box: 0.2 dbs - Opening the glove box: 0.2 dbs - Closing a/a vents: 0.5 dbs - Inverting the sub´s polarity: 0.3 dbs - Changing from PVC roundover to mdf 45´s : 0.2 dbs I´m the SPL Gains topic creator!! wanna get louder?? check this: SPL Gains.
