    How many more dbs using internal bracing?

    one should also note that in some cases, any bracing at all will drop a score. be it a second baffle or whatever. completely depends upon vehicle, tuning and build. but thumper's advice is good advice. if building for spl, avoid "window" or "screen door" type bracing. look into dowel rod, all thread or similiar types. and if you go with teh "window" type, a roundover bit is your friend. and the w7 is a good driver. overpriced for what it is, but solid nonetheless. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

  3. zune or ipod. i've tried a few of the other cheaper knockoffs, and don't like them, unless headphones are all that's going to be used. the best luck i've had is the ipod, though i don't like itunes. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

    Welcome to the IHoP

    That is a great movie regardless. I just finished watching The Big Lebowski on HD. Great movie. To funny. i had liked the quality of hd dvds better than blu-ray initially, but dark knight shut my hd dvd collection down. i'm excited to see what ironman is like on bd too. ironman is awesome on BR! even better then the dark knight, IMHO. but then again, i think teh stroyline in ironman was better put together, and the dark knight ending was blah... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

    What was your dumb ticket for?

    no such thing as quotas...they are illegal. however, we are empowered to write as many tickets as we want. and if you don't draw attention to yourself, you won't get followed. of course, you never do that, right? wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

    What was your dumb ticket for?

    fudge the police, eh? but without us, just where would society be? we make bullchit pay, drive bullchit equipment, get cussed at for not doing our job when it doesn't affect a person then get cussed at for doing our job when it does. piss poor hours and the threat of someone with something to prove pulling a gun at a stupid stop, like a seatbelt offense. yeah, fudge the police, and next time you get pulled over, i hope he/ she writes you for everything they can. no, not everyone of us is perfect, there are indeed some crooked and craptastic cops out there. but there are also some very good ones, and i'm blessed to work with a few of those guys. and when someone like you makes that comment, my blood boils. we aren't perfect, but without us, society would crash. a cop dies every 57hrs on duty somewhere, taking a bullet (or stabbed, or ran over or beat to death) so someone else doesn't have too. why don't you volunteer to take one of their places? i'm sure you'll change your attitude then. and yeah, i police this place too, and this is your warning. anymore bullchit comments like that, and you won't be making any comments. in all seriousness, i don't care if your joking or not. i will not tolerate that attitude about my brothers and sisters in blue, regardless of time in. understand? wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee i dont wanna say fudge tho police, but ones around here seem to be scared to do things,.. my dads was the manager at a store it was bein robbed he called the police, took them an hour to get there, they walked in the door, all my dad said was " Hi, I'm dead now". And about a year ago my car got broke into by some guys in a mustang in the walmart parkin lot ( i work at walmart), the guys left a screw driver, a shirt, and tons of prints on my cars trunk, the police refused to take the shirt for a week, refused to take prints of the car, took the screw driver and said it was to hard to get prints off it. I even saw the car that did it again and gave them the licence plate and still nothin happened, then this very week i come out so see another car is broke into, and the cart pushers described the car, and it was the same as the one that broke into mine a year ago. I went and talked to the officer there and hes said, well this stuff is gonna happen this time of year, he didnt ever right a report for the guy that got broke into, then told us, "If yall see any other officers around here tell them what the car looks like"..? um maybe radio in the discription? I was out on the lot pushin carts yesterday and was surprised i saw, about 5 different cop cars circling the lot for about an hour or more, I was happy they were finally doin somethin about the breakin, BUT. one of the cops drives up to us and asks, " have you seen any guys puttin flyers on cars"??? How do you get 5 cars searchin for a guy puttin flyers on cars, but the guy thats breakin it to cars and stealing ppls property just gets to drive away. I wish some cops like you say you are could come down here a show these guys how to take charge of all the situations not just the easy ones i understand your frustration, and if what you are saying is accurate, then something definitely needs to be done. start by going to council meetings, voicing your complaints to the people who write the paychecks. circulate a petition asking for a police department reform, put the cops on notice. our police chief, whom i call a friend outside of work, was just fired for similiar behavior, and i agree with the council. he wasn't doing his job, and they held him accountable. and such is life. but be responsible about yourself and your actions. hold yourself accountable. do it the right way. and they will be forced to change, or not have a job. if the council doesn't work, go to the next level, in illinois, it's the standards and training board. i'm sure your state has something similar. if they get involved, lol, one can expect wholesale changes if what you say is 100% accurate. also, don't forget, we have rules to follow, policies that can handcuff us in everything we do. btw, doesn't your walmart have parking lot cameras? our small town even does. see about getting a copy of the tape, take it to the meetings and force the council to take action if the pd won't. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

    whos got the best GF on the planet???

    i never chargd for anyone to use my tl, and don't understand why you would want too. most people have to drive to you to use it, and it doesn't cost anything to plug it in...but eh, whatever. i sold my tl some time ago, not needed. and besides i have a friend that has the dual mci pro tl and i can use it for free whenever i have the urge. and my wife trumps all...my gifts this year? a glcok19 for offduty carry, an armalite m15 for duty carry and several smaller gadgets and gizmos. the armalite alone was $1200 or so. oh, and a ruger sp101 in 327fed mag just because i wanted it, lol. gotta love a wife who likes guns!! did i mention my mossberg ultimag? that was just because too... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

    Welcome to the IHoP

    the ruger is nice, but i really gotta go savage for anything bolt action. teh accutrigger is the bomb, and if one likes a .25 to .5 lb pull, get the orange one. my 17hmr savage with silver accutrigger (1.5 to 6lb pull) is awesome. another good choice is the s&w ibolt. a bit pricey compared to the ruger and savage, liek the kimber, but a great shooter from all reviews. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

    Welcome to the IHoP

    get #2 in a golden boy. and yep, you can indeed go with optics on one. i'll have to look up some info on it, but i've seen it done. i also want a golden boy, but i'm thinking old school, like .45long colt. however one in .357 would be sweet as hell! i've got both an ak varient (the saiga in .223) and my armalite m15. i'll take the ar everyday and twice on sunday now after owning and shooting both. at least in semi auto trim. the ar is just way more accurate (16" barrel and mid length gas system), ergos are far better and it's just as reliable, if you keep it lubed. it won't shoot the really cheap russian .223 stuff very well, but that's the ak's job anyway, lol. teh ar is my duty weapon and i wouldn't trade it for the world, definitely worth every penny over the ak IMHO. i love talking guns, lol. i need to get some pics up.... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

    i'm in southern illinois, just a hop, skip and jump from kentucky. but don't know if that's close enough, plus my ICON is just sitting in a box doing nothing at this point. damn new truck won't fit the ICON under the seat like the last one. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

    Product availbility?

    i believe he will still be having thilo build his products. IIRC, that is what he is waiting on, thilo to get back on his feet. i'm sure all products, regardless of buildhouse, will still have mike's standard of quality. btw, email [email protected] for a faster response from him. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
  19. my single 12" ICON, unbroken in, did a best of 132@40hz in a 2ft^3@34hz net enclosure, single 4" port. dowfired under the rear seat of my silverado with ~1kwrms going to it. definitely a subwoofer, very capable of getting loud and will sound great doing it! wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
  20. ryan1, it's an, not and. and i think that anything over 100watt defintiely needs a circuit breaker upgrade. if one is using several thousand of them. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

    Welcome to the IHoP

    i need to go to bed, take a cod3 and enjoy my fractured nose. yep, just a hairline, but fractured nonetheless. of course the fellow who caused said fracture is still in jail and his felony count just climbed one more to felony resisting arrest, to go along with aggravated battery of a police officer and misdemeanor criminal damages. he also got a free flight aboard air kent after the head butt, but his landing was rough and a bit of a face plant. the plane landing upon his back and shoving his grille into the mud probably didn't brighten up the flight either, lol. though the pilot sure enjoyed the hell outa it!!! god, i love being a cop! wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
