hi, i recently installed some subs in my car about 2 months ago with absolutely no problem. now all the sudden my ecu fuse keeps blowing. i have a 2001 hyundai accent 1.5l. i installed : iraggi 200a alt kinetic 1400 in the back (still got original in the front) 0ga wiring memphis 4kw 2-re sx 18's i've been reading online and some have suggested faulty oem wiring and other various conponents (sensors, injectors, ect..). so far what i've seen in my car is this. about a week ago i was driving back to work from lunch (18's bangin') and when i took a left turn the car died and would not start back up(starter turns over but engine won't run). i pulled over and within about 15 minutes i found the 20a ecu fuse under the hood was blown so i took the 30a head light fuse and put it in the 20a ecu location, the car drove back to work and home no problem. so i didn't drive the car anymore. i didn't have time to mess with it for a few days so i later bought a new 20a fuse for the ecu and put both the fuses in their correct location. after that i drove the car down the hwy and banged the shiznit outa the 18's no problem. later that same day i had my girl with me and she don't like the LOUD subs so i didn't even have em on, we went about ten miles down the hwy to a store with no problem. but when we left we took a left turn back on the hwy and bam!!! it blows again so i pull over and instantly swap the fuses as i did before. but now as soon as i try to crank the car the fuse blows everytime. with the key off and the ecu fuse out i put my meter on the 2 fuse terminals and it reads 11.34v. to the best of my knowledge there should'nt be any voltage in the fuse box between 2 terminals. so i found 2 wires comming off this fuse (1-14ga red, 1-18ga orange/black). the orange/black wire has the short. i followed the wire straight to the ecu when its plugged into the ecu the short is present when i unplug it the short is gone. do ya'll have any suggestions?

oh, i was under the impression that ported was usaully the loudest method. why would a sealed enclosure do better on hair tricks. i listen to rap/r&b (some slowed down/screwed), by tuning it higher would i be losing a lot of my low end bass? if so would my gain in the higher notes be great enough to sacrofice the low end loss? i see it on the graphs but i currently only have one set of ports built right now so i can't hear it. am i messing up by getting 2-21's should i have gone with some higher powered 15's? i'm willing to do a wall. it will be my first. thanks

actually i had to remove my back seat for the box. it's not a wall but it comes all the way up to the back of the front seats. it's pretty much just a big plane square box then i added side panels to make it look better. the subs are on top with 2 ports facing front. it doesn't seem to make a huge difference in bbp from 28hz to 34hz but i will try it i have extra wood and i built the ports to be easly removeable (figured i'd be playin wit em).

hi, i was just wandering if anyone had any suggestions on what i could do? i used to think i was into sq but over time i think i just like loud. i've had several systems over the years (all installed by me) and i have honestly never been satisfied with any. mids and highs i dont really care about for now, i just want bass so loud i can't stand it. i've seen vids on hair tricks and i think maybe that's what i need. i don't have an spl meter to know what i'm hitting now. mine tops at 130db, i hit that at about half volume. currently i'm running: 2001 hyundai accent factory tape deck with ipod iraggi dominator 200a 0ga everywhere kinetic 1400 memphis mojo 4kw 2- re sx 18d4's 14cf box after all displacement tuned @ 28hz (bassbox pro) everybody says it's the loudest they've heard, it hurts their ears, bla bla bla... not good enough for me. i will only turn it up for a minute or so because i'm scared of frying them. their only rated @ 1000w ea, i should be putting around 2000w ea. do ya'll think my setup is capable of hair tricks? are systems capable of that ok for daily driving? i just bought 2 used ia dp 21's(can't wait till they get here). what would ya'll suggest for them? i'll tri my best to cram them in my 01 accent. any input would be greatly appreciated. thanks
