alright guys time for a build log. to start this off we have a 91 crx purchased without a dash front bumper and needing a trans. the trans has been fixed and the car runs good so now starts the audio section of the build.

we will be running 2 re se15 on a audiopipe 3k. the 15s we have had and the 3k has been ordered we will run 2 runs of 0g 1+ 1- for now. we will continue to add until we see no more gain. i will be building 3 boxes for this. one sealed to find out where im at frequency wise. one for daily beating tuned around 30-35hz and one at the top frequency more than likely built subs forward 10" pvc back...

the car will be deadened completely until we sain a loss. we will be shooting for numbers in this mainly as classes around me get pretty competitive.

i will be painting the wheels black also blacking out the tails and putting a oem bumper on it. the car will get tinted and repainted flat black. after some body work gets done.

tomorrow i will be starting on doors while waiting for the audiopipe to arrive b4 i start testing so i can have some power. the plan is to eventually run 2 sundown 3500s on 8 sa8s.

here are what pics i have so far my camera is at the shop or id post the vids of a us amps xt4000 and 2 15s did to the windshield already at 30hz lol lets just say the small crack it had now takes over the windshield.

you should go with 10s or 12s , crxs tend to like smaller subs , loudest design was 4 12s 2 forword 2 top and port back

i have considered 4 12s. we are going to play with the 15s and see what kind of number we can get off of what we have for now...

i might get sick of it and drop in 2 10s and run street a or i might say screw it and just do bass race. it all depends how testing goes. i have heard some peak in the high 50s and iv seen a few that peak at high 30s low 40s depending on where mine is is where i go from there.
