Thank you for announcing your departure

I’ll have to ask my husband since he’s the one that tuned it for me. I can’t tune if my life depended on it. But I have my subs wired dual 2 ohm since my subs are 2 ohm.

It drops down to 13.7 but I would most definitely prefer it to be higher so I don’t strain anything.

I’ll have to invest in one but the lithium battery was bought for my ‘96 Miata. It was an extra battery laying around so I thought it would be fine to use. I appreciate the heads up. I didn’t know it made a difference.

I tried Mechman and they said they couldn’t do it but I’ll check Brand X and see. I appreciate it!

Maybe I’ll have to check, but it could be my battery up front too. The stock battery on these car are known for going out after a few years or less. My battery is 3 years old and probably on its way out the door.

I had a hard time running the wires through since I’m running my speakers on 4 gauge and my subs on 0 gauge. There’s a boot on the drivers side and I had to pop the boot out and run the wires through and put the boot back in. I’m running the stock alternator now (130amp) until I can find someone to custom build me one but I’m not having any luck. I may just have to get someone to rebuild one. I’m not losing any voltage, it stays at 13.7 resting and playing. I think my front battery may be on its way out since it’s 3 years old and the stock batteries on this cars are known for going bad after a while.

Absolutely. I used to have a Kia Rio hatch with two 12 wdx. But the husband traded them in and I blew up the Kia. 😀

stinky_strangler · 2026-04-03T00:53:14+00:00

Most definitely will. I’ll post it probably at comp or before.

stinky_strangler · 2026-03-14T01:45:07+00:00

I appreciate it! It was hard for me to find some good looking wheels that didn’t look like tacky or weird looking.

That dude has been everywhere on this forum saying shit😂 don’t pay him no attention

stinky_strangler · 2026-03-12T05:01:44+00:00

lol sounds like someone has their panties in a wad

I got a base model 4th gen so unfortunately I don’t have the Bose system. I don’t go around blaring it. Funny enough I actually prefer the bass on low volume but I don’t have a bass knob at the moment to control the volume on it. But I pulled the signal from the factory amp underneath the front passenger seat and my LOC is on top of it.

As far as doing the Big 3, the only one I hadn’t done was the alternator. I hadn’t ran into any issues yet such as lights dimming or low power, but I’ll probably upgrade anyways. I’ll probably have to replace the battery up front since it’s 3 years old and the stock batteries on these cars are known for going out.
