So other than looking at an older cavalier for the winter i found out insurance would only be 250 a year on it so im going to jump on that deal. I decided to rebuild in the rado and in the meantime so i can figure out that the hell is causing my 5th cylinder to misfire everytime the motor gets warm, and maybe at some point fix my heatshield thats starting to rattle a little bit.
onto teh pics.
going to do 4 15" SDC2.5's @ 36hz.... or maybe 32hz, not sure yet. Subs should be in monday.

for the meantime but im going to tryn run it at 1 ohm, with IMP rise i should actually be seeing alot more power than what im at now. Dependant on funds, i plan on ordering another p30001 before spring so i can strap them for comps. The thing is it will only be at 2 ohms, then again i really dont have the electrical to run over 4kwrms daily.

So today was interesting, all day long every time i got into my truck i smelt something burning, i kept thinking shit, maybe one of my wire ends grounded out or something wasnt taped off all the way. Triple checked everything fine, seemed to be coming from the outside of my truck, exhaust area so i figured maybe salt or snow melting was makin it smell.
Noticed my fog was out when i was behind a truck, so i went to take a look at it before working on my system and look what i find.


thank god my truck didnt burn down, i dont know wtf happened.
back to the build

taking out crunch amp, adding RF amp, moving shit around etc.

Rhino lining, and making the side pieces for the box, i will be just putting in some 6.5" mids and tweets and maybe a 5.25" on each side, still debating if i want much rear fill this time.
