DSS Tridents and Twisted Sounds S-10. Road to 166dBs

[nadcicle 77]

Little update since heatwave. The truck itself has been running like crap, won't stay started, Ect. Got that fixed. Gonna do some maintenance items while I'm at it. LOF, coolant, trans service, and whatnot.

Anyways, I just looked back and realized I never posted results of heatwave. Burp class 751-1500@4ohm class, Burped a 159.6 on almost zero testing. I had just got the truck back playing before I put it in the lanes.

Since nobody else was in my music class, I was messing around during my run. That's the video senchez posted. That's not an actual score, I have no idea why he even posted that in my build log. Well, I have an idea, but ill leave it alone.

No my truck doesn't do a 146 on music.

Now is a good as time as any, I have ordered up subs, from 2 different manufacturers to see what is loudest, and of course what will actually fit.

I have very limited space so I'm sceptical.

When the DSS Tridents come out, ill test them out too.

Stay tuned.

 

I've done this myself, but you always have to realize that these are part of "good with bad" you're representing with a giant sticker on the back and a win is a win no matter which way you look at it. On one hand you're called a sandbagger, but on the other hand you're saving any possibility of blowing anything on a chance of running a 30 second full throttle music round. 

 

Publicity is publicity and it still puts DSS out there!

Good shit Steve, keep on keeping on.

Truck is looking good!! Can't wait to hear it

[daviddto 90]

Congrats on the wins!

[stevemead08 752]

Thanks.

Not too shabby for a "stock" class truck with 2 3k amps.

Congrats

I saw this truck at fort smith show real loud and steve is a super nice guy

[swift 501]

Badass build

[stevemead08 752]

Thanks guys. Getting it dialed in. Still chasing my first score of 60.8.

Like a crack head chasing his first high.

60.3 is the best I've seen out of it in a while. Hoping that a sub swap will yield better numbers. Maybe even recone the Ethos so they are new and stiff again.

I gained .9 after break in

[stevemead08 752]

Quite different builds.

[stevemead08 752]

Tempted to sell the truck and buy a car for a trunk class build.

[jcarter1885 995]

If you accomplished what you wanted with the truck then I say why not.

I have, except a world championship title.

[stevemead08 752]

It's funny, I hear everyday that because I have an s10 that it's so easy to get loud.

So far from the truth. Unless I can find the weak link that's holding the score back.

[jcarter1885 995]

Im sure you can find it, finish the year strong and make your decision from there. I wouldnt mind seeing what you could do with a trunk car though

[stevemead08 752]

Part of the problem is I don't want to hurt any feelings when I do figure it out.

I'm curious as well. Trunk would be fun.

[stevemead08 752]

And cheap.

[stevemead08 752]

Just for giggles. Wanted to see if a monster sub, physically fit in my shallow enclosure. It did...

[Dexter Chaos 14]

Which one?

[SacredTanakh 67]

Which one?

 B2 Audio XC

[stevemead08 752]

Well since the Trident is geared towards the big boy subs in the market. Why not do some testing before hand.

This a B2 XC. This one is blown, but ill be getting 2 more coming and recone this one.

3 custom Tantric HDDs being built next week for me as well.

[jcarter1885 995]

Somebody is gonna be having fun the next couple months

[stevemead08 752]

Somebody is gonna be having fun the next couple months

Just trying to be the best I can be. I'm anxious to see what I can get out of this truck and see what the tridents do.

[jcarter1885 995]

I cant wait to see how those big boy subs hold up to the Ethos as well or vice a versa.
