just not into the big systems like I used to be, but the exhaust sounds decent for just an add on muffler.
BTW... take it from someone who has lost quite a bit of their hearing, be careful with the amount of loud music and bass that you subject your ears to. I used to run 3 amps, 4 8's, and 2 12's back in the day, and I destroyed my hearing. It's frustrating as hell to have hearing problems... trust me.

My buddy thats the manager of the local car audio shop i go to. Says i might lookin around 120db-140db only time will tell. My system right now is loud enough that i can make the mirrors on my buddies blazer at school shake due to the bass from my set upneuspeedescort said:

that fart can sounded a lot better than i was expecting. A guy i used see every now then used to have two 12" and a 15" sub in his little s10 pickup and there was so much bass i couldnt stand it for more than just a few seconds sitting in there. It made your entire body feel weird and like your heart was going to stop lol. One thing i found cool about it though is that you couldnt use a lighter within 3-4 feet from the truck when the bass was going because the flame would get blown out. 8O

your buddy that manages the shop is an idoit. 120-140db is huge asss difference. i know what 140 feels like. my first car hit 140.6db with one of its systems. i also know what 133 feels like. its not near what 140 is. i know that my red car with 3-15's was louder but never tested.1Loud92LX said:

what mic are you using? termlab or audio control. depending on alot of things there can be 3-6 db different. audio control being higher. your amp is 1600 peak not rms. so what is it running rms? i wouldn't say your pushing over 133-135. off what i can see. on amore constructive note. i would get soem expanding foam and put it between your door skin and the sideimpact beam. that is what i did in the red car when i had the big stereo. i also had most of the rear 1/4's filled with it. i can email up pics if you want.

Nice!
My friend had 2 12 solobarics in his mx-3 and it was loud.
I prefered 1 15 and a big a$$ box.

5 1/2 cubic ported..never did get it metered, cracked my font windshield a week after in.
Now I have it in a 2 cubic sealed box in my Mazda3 , not nearly as loud.

My friend used to run 2 15" Eclipses in his, well, Eclipse. Both had 1600 Watt amp for them. He didn't do to bad at car shows. 2nd place at Drop Jaws Freak Show 7 in Warsaw, NC. The Bass was so load he couldn't hear that the Engine had stalled and he drained his battery during the test.

chris has become rather tired of the forums. to many people get bent when i speaks freely. he can be an abresive person at times but that is his personality. he knows what he is talking about.red97lxscort said:
