    I'll post a build log of what I've done the last week. I'm just copying this from what i've already posted on car audio forums. So it will look like a progress thread even though it's pretty much all done.

    So I'm doing a build with 2 12" Alpine Type-R's. I'm powering them with a Rockford Fosgate T1000.1BD (1,464 watts rms on birthsheet).. This is all going in my 01 Mustang. I've got the box done and i just got the subs in the mail today. Here's the pics of the box and subs.
    The box is 4.7 cubic feet tuned to 32 hz.

    I just got done painting the box. It's flat black. I'll take some pics of it when it's dry. Now all i have to do is put it in the car. I'll have to remove the rear seats though and bend some metal just to get the box in the trunk.

    Well I hooked up the subs today. It was so much work getting that box in the car. But oh my god, it's so loud. I love it. It's much louder than the 12" Fi Q I had. I was totally surprised. It flexes the hell out of my car. I need to take a vid. I didn't have time to film one earlier, now i do but it's dark.

    Here's some pics.

    This is after i took out my rear seats and cut and bent the metal up to make room for the box.

    lol this is how ghetto my car looks now. Tomorrow I'll actually put my back seat back in and clean up the wires.

  4. Well it's pretty much done now. I put the backseats in. All i have left to do is mount the amp down. It's so loud and i still haven't gotten used to it yet. I love it.

    Here's a video of the subs destroying my car. Of course my camera couldn't pick up all the flex but o well. The doors flex like crazy at low frequency's, it's insane. And the trunk flexes hard too.

  5. Dude I was wondering if you could give me some instructions on how to remove the seats and the metal thing because I have a box with 2 18s but it doesnt fit in my 03 mustang and I really miss bumping :( You have the same trunk as me .
     
  6. pm sent
     
  7. Nice box! And battery, I had the same one when I had my rx8 & setup.
     
  8. thanks man. cool :)
     
  9. thank you for showing us at GC what not to do to our mustangs. i hope that you have the V6 model because that would be a complete disgrace to the sound of a V8. not only that but you're gonna need to be replacing your trunk hood a lot if you keep bumpin it like that.
     
  10. slightly excessive I feel.
     
  11. nice, you ever go to caraudio.com/forum (aka CA.COM)? that used to be my main forum, but it's turned into a zoo so i came here.

    i used to have a single type r back in the day, but now its a 15" fi Q powered by a kicker zx1000.1.
     
  12. lol why the hate? I guess you must not like bass. And yes, it is a V6(sadly:(lol).
    no way man. No such thing as too much bass. :D
     
  13. meh. not enough IMO. This guy has it right

  15. As long as the box is to spec.. which looks to be you'll love them TypeR's

    i had one in a OE TypeR box n my car fuckin shakes to the point ur airs leak..

    ^^ tru story.

    Add a EV or Audio pipe for voice n u'll be shittin
     
  16. That is awsome. How much did that cost?
     
  17. you know that you cut out a LOT of structural support right?

    why not construct a box that actually fits, instead of stuffing some giant shit in there.

    Bigger does not always mean better.
     

  18. comes like that from factory.. that goes from the back seat to the trunk..
    i dunno i think its if u need to stuff bigger shit in the trunk u fold down the seats
     
  19. JL Audio all the way. My three 12s make my ears BLEED.

    Nice setup tho
