8 mj-18m's in my 97 astro van

[slapmaster 0]

i have a 97 astro van that is currently getting the trans rebuilt. i was going to run 2 solo x 18s. then i changed my mind and sold them today on ebay. now i'm looking to buy 8 mj18's for my build. i have an hk4000d and a ss xxx6500d for power. five opti batts and stock alt for now. i want this thing to be a groundpounder that can also do good at comps.

advise welcome

2 20cu.ft boxes tuned to 30hz you will die

not for 8 18's

[dragnix 0]

I'm not saying that it's big for the subs, just saying that it's big in general

I bet you could do a 160 at 35 hz with 8 18's ported

I threw up in my mouth a little when I saw the fur, I feel better now that it's gone! The box looks pretty good, I hope you plan on bracing that a lot!
