project loud and low (EM2 content)

[smokenyall]

Yea that's true but being slammed makes my bumper support lower than a normal cars bumper, If I get rear ended there bumper is going right Into my taillights. The tank is aluminum and my cutoff pressure is 145psi, I also plan on doing a nice led retrofit in my taillights to make them bright as fuck!!! So they have no excuse to rear end me. Oh and I've already looked into it and they make air tanks as rear bumpers for trucks.

Well I did some of this


Did a test fit which ended up great, had more clerance then I was expecting




Then of course nothing ever goes right, when I was doin the last weld on the strut this happened

A pin hole appeared while I was welding so all the pressurized gas caught fire and shot out all over me, burning my arm and burning some of the hair on my head, so at the end of the day the car got put back together with me being pissed off and pulling a collar on my current setup. So now I have to wait till Monday to order a new shock from airlift which sucks because I was literally so close to having the car finished, oh well things happen for a reason I guess.

Just ordered a new shock from airlift that should be on my doorstep by friday, So this weekend the car is going to be on bags, well at least the front for now baha

I don't think that is going to prevent people from rear ending you. People usually get rear ended by people who aren't paying attention, not people who can't see brake lights. If anything bright as fuck tail lights will be more likely to hurt someone's eyes and make them take their eyes off the road making it more likely for you to be rear ended.

Yeah if you get rear ended theres going to be a massive boom and then your car is going to drop to the ground... seems like a quality way to poop your pants

Glad to see the bags

It's tuned to 29hz it's a 7cubic foot box , ill get some new vids up when I'm running 3k

Word..

im at around 37 and 4.5 cu feet (I think, its been forever since i did the math) my box is sealed.
I was running a 4th order bandpass but the subs pretty much ripped that box apart, there isn't enough room in my trunk either to really pull of that setup.

I need to port mine though! 29 is pretty much what I was think of

You could always do something like this http://www.caraudio.com/forums/enclo...led-trunk.html
Subs and port firing forward sealed off from the trunk, lets you use all the space in the trunk for the box and not worry about having enough airflow to be efficient. Speaking of broken boxes, my support for the port came loose so now I'm getting a slap noise I gotta fix. You will love 29hz if you got the power to back it up, low enough to do hair tricks and it will still hit some highs

[Stupid Kid]

cool cool, unfortunately I dont have fold down rear seats, just a ski passthrough so if i sealed it i would efficiently have a second chamber that my subs were firing into, kinda like a 4th order. which may work fine but its gonna take me hours of doing the math before i convince myself its a good idea because im that type of guy..

[smokenyall]

If that's the case then one of these might work if you don't mind some cutting lol

Subs across the rear deck with the port thru the skee pass or no rear deck with a loading wall against the back seat an port and subs facing the loading wall.

Got everything in but it was dark by the time I finished so heres some shitty pics
No more extended top hats but instead custom camber plates

Lowered my outer tierod an inch and used rod ends


It's so close to being laid out but I'm sitting on axle so a little baby notch will take care of that


Here she is almost laid out

[rice4life]

Looks good man, very innovative setup. It would be a lot better if your ICE setup was a bit cleaner.

[smokenyall]

Finished the baby notch on the passenger side and now it's laid out, I started the drivers side but didn't finish.

[jerrychoochoo]

Looking good, not a big fan of the wheels though.
