[project89]

there ssome pics its still unfinished abd the top of the one box needs some bondo work to fill in the gouges that were made by a transmission i had put into the car to deliver

[qwikz28]

nice work... try moving those boxes into the hatch and watch your car go like 5db louder

[project89]

thnx
lol those boxes wont fit into the hatch(and its not killing any db since spl is sound preasure level)(its measured by how well ur subs preasurize the car in a sence ).anyways im sealing the hatch area off with plexiglass its gonna be right behind the amps and seal up against the hatch glass and sides.though the piece will deff be reovable for when i have to throw something back there.prolly only have the pelxi peice in when i goto a soundoff,im debating on puttin 2 more 12's back there in a hatch box,but its even more wight i dont need in the car,im already carrying an extra 300-350 pounds.

all you do is SPL competition? no SQ?

[project89]

just spl.A 3rdgen camaro isnt that great of a car for sq.but is one of the better cars for doing spl. just cause i dont do sq dosent mean that my car is all bass either

i dont know how different the 3rd gens are from the 4th gens but i know my car isnt the worst for SQ. what makes our cars so good for systems is not only the hatch, but the abundance of glass. glass reflects sound waves and really adds to the sound. JBL uses Mike Latchers LS1 firehawk as a SQ competition vehicle. my car is strickly set up for SQ and is therefore no where near as loud as yours. i'm slightly changing my setup this year but i think i found a winning combo.

and yes our cars are amazing for SPL and a little sub can make alot of bass in our hatches

[Firehawk 526]

Then you have me.....quasi SQ/SP! Good at both, but not the best at either! One thing I've learned, is you have your hands full trying to achieve both w/o major tuning adjustments! Most SQ cars (f-bodies) don't hit over 143db IMO, but the F-body can be mastered with enough cutting and fabricating. Isn't Mike on his 3rd setup?

i think more man. he had the JL W7 first which he swapped out for a JBL GTi i believe, and now i think he's just toying with fiberglass and making it look pretty

[project89]

heh i may be swaping out my alumapro stuff for 2 w7 13's or 2-4 kickers

ill have to do that,cause im deff looking do do something else with the car,and its gonna be hard to get the roll cage in the car with the enclousre i have now.
the kickers take a really small box so i could fit 4 in less space then im using now,and there really good for spl,the w7's are great for spl but still take a large box.
still undecided though deff wanna take a look at some other brands.alpine type x's,some cadence stuff etc.before i commit to building a new system.then again depending on how fast the car goes on the turbo i may just rip it all out of the car

[qwikz28]

keep one car a street car and put the system in that one. one for street, one for racing

[project89]

lol well the 89 is th eonly one i have that id even consider having the system in,if i keep the car after the second turbo goes on,ill see what it runs and if its only out of the 11's by a few tenths or so u bet ur as sthe system is getting riped out
