Tiburon SPL

[Peteyglad 2]

Help me out. Anyone do a SPL system in a Tiburon? Just trying to get an idea of the box tuning. The box is for a pair of 12" Fusion Powerplants, each one run by a Fusion Lomu amp. ANy help is appreciated.

What year? if its like my freind i'd recocmend a CRX style box, start with a 45Hz tuning and work your way up and remove that thing that seperates the "Trunk" fro mthe rest of the car (the car is a hatch back but there is a deck that lifts when you upen the hatch).

45Hz? why so high?

[Peteyglad 2]

It is an 03 Tiburon. I was thinking about 42 Hz and go from there. His box before had the subs firing forward and the port pointed up at the glass. It was tuned to 55 Hz. Not his 1st choice for a box design but it ws cheap. Was doing 144.X on a TermLab with it and wants more.

Time to build his own box. LOL.

well my friends is an 04 V6 GT

I will guarontee you that vehicle has a high assed FS even w/o deadener...just becaus its stock infinity 8, when playing sight sweeps on a bass CD, that car was "ok" for a stock system right up untill around mid-high 40's-mid 50's where it was "good " as far as loudness for stock then it dropped off and was sorta flat till 100Hz where the sweep quit. Panels where resonating the most in that point and all.

If he has the flip up deck like my friends removing it alone will gian him some SPL. i dunno what kind of hatch flex they have since my friend doenst have a system in his but if yo ufan reduce hatch flex you will gain some SPL.

face the woofers up and the ports to the back is generally best for hatches, brace brace brace the enclosure but w/o restricting airflow (double up on MDF or w/e yo ucan) and resin the inside, bolt it down tight. and give it all the power you can for burps.

Just for reference, here are some pics of his previous box.

try subs to the passanger side if possible and ports to the rear....that style tends to work well in "odd" vehicles...lol...

can't say anymore then that, but give it a go.

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
