what kinda size you looking for up front?
im tempted to put one of my 75Ah up there! or see what i can get in work the same size but more power!... ill keep you in formed on that front too!

have been meaning to ask,scruff said you have the gear, any chance you would be able to scope my US once ive got the rest of the woofers in. i wont be running .5 daily but obviously going to want it to be as clean a signal i can get when i do burp it!

also you seen the US TU-600 on SB for sale? thinking about that badger for some front front comps just doing a shit load of research on xxx 6.5c and hertz hsk and JL audio atm! you still looking at going down the route of 6? JBL comps too?

i would of thought you would have one of the 75s up front im looking for as large as pos (hoping 100ah) but let me no how one of your 75s fit if its a decent fit i might have one off you

il bring my scope up next week so we can set the amp up. what ohm you going to run it for daily? you thought about alt upgrade yet?

yeah seen it would be a good amp to run 2 sets of 4ohm comps off it . i would go for jl comps thay do sound awsome but as you can see front my car thay dont have the output need for systems like ours. 2 sets of xxx comps would be lush and should keep up pretty well.

will be going down the route of 8 set of comps but atm ive only got enough amp power to run 4 sets so im just gonna get thos in and wen i have the money finish them off

[Tontsy]

yeah man, 2 sets of xxx would be northing less than utter sweeet! but how deep do you think my pockets are?!
the TU-600 if its still going on pay day, it is a must i think!

i will be running daily at 1Ohm, taking it down to 0.5 for testing and the showing off periods

ive thought about the Alt, im being cheeky though and waiting to see what you end up doing, then asking how it goes! but yeah thinking about it! havnt yet looked into it but i would imagine a picasso VTR would have a decent sized one.

the 8 comps will be amazing, how are you planning on mounting them? get one of your paintshop diagrams up!

if you bring the scoping gear! that would be epic! and yes i will let you know how i get on with a decent battery up front!
you running stock induction? as i know if you move the pipes / get a cone induction you can fit a fairly decent battery in there!

[LSOfreak]

is there any other saxo with a bigger a setup! how does it feel to drive with all that weight? is it like your always driving a full car? does it affect mpg?

i think its only really me and Liam who have "big" installs.
it makes driving...fun... down hill and even holding up lorrys when going up hill!

when my rear beam, cocks up, as im sure it will one day! i will strip it.
i guess it will feel like a rocket! lol.

MPG i found mine is shit... i get 100-120 miles to half a tank :/ but thats just 1-4th gear, to and from work! i havnt yet seen how it goes on a full tank on motorway driving! i would imagine id get about 300-350 to a tank.

Liam hows yours effected?

as far as i no its the loudest saxo in the uk there is anorther saxo walled with 8 jbls but its seal so doubt it would have the same output as mine but tonts is catch up fast so i might be over taken soon. feels fine to drive handels very well with the weight the back end never comes out only problem is stoping but that it isnt bad bad just not as good as it once was lol

mpg has gone down but its nothink like a vts mpg ect

taken the weight out doesnt make as much differance as u think it would ive had about 200kg out of min efor he last week only thing that is different is the car rolls a little wen going around round abouts and brakes work better

think i get around 350-400 if i drive normal but most shows ect every one stays at 70 so i do have to drop it down a gear when hills are about lol

[liam_b]

well the boot is done everythink wired up screw/bolted down. it will be booming tomorrow just got to finish of the lighting do the bracing then put the subs back in

[liam_b]

all subs in and working hopfuly get some vids up tomorrow

gotta try get alt upgrade done asap while i was setting up last night i manage to drop down to 10.8 the 1201s didnt mind it but im loosing alot of power thru voltage drop

yeah will be nice to drive up with someone as slow as me haha

im gonna do all i can to try keep u taking it but ive only got a few more mods and tweeks left todo to the car then im leaving it aslong at it does a 149.9 baccrace and i get to the euro finals il be happy

[Tontsy]

149.9 baserace would be sweeeet!
im sure you can work your magic...

and i dont think you have to worry that much about me stealing the title...as im in the mood to sell up!
i set a target of 145...and smashed that.

and now i want some speed back in my life! so going for a 2 wheel project!
and maybe an S conversion too! if i keep the sax and just sell the ice.

well went met matty tonight and we went for a boom and test the tunnel hadnt been setup very well and it was sounding very mudy but loud so after having a listen we found a few problems with the install (just bits ive been lazy about) need to do some more sealing and bracing well matty noticed the subs wernt moving together so we got out the multi meter and the amps where well out on gains and crossover so we match the amps up and it has made it alot less muddy thanks matty

tomorrow im going to scope the set up to make sure im getting the most out of the amps

after matching all the amps we gave the car a test im happy with the scores but i think theres alot more in this voltage was droping down to 11 and we had been playing the system for quite a while befor we tested so i think freshly charged batterys and cold subs should see me over the 152 mark

Liam_B - 8x JBL GT5 12" - Diamond Ported Tunnel - 4400w RMS
Total Average (((Propper Droppers))) Score = 150.6dB

Peak= 151.6dB @ 33hz
40hz= 151.1dB
33hz= 151.6dB
25hz= 150.9dB
20hz= 147.8dB
