SI Dealer Demo Car

Recommended Posts

Special thanks to Ryan for the box!

I still have a lot of work to do. But so far I have one mag 12 in and am giving it about 400rms at 4 ohms. I will eventually have 2 12's with 1000rms going to each of them.

I have a US Amps MD2 to power the subs.

Here are some pictures for you all to see.

Here is the Pioneer HU I recently installed. I will be getting the deh-880prs and putting that in as well.

And here are some pictures of the car in case you are wondering what it looks like.

And yes, the steering wheel is upside down and it drives me crazy everytime I look at that picture.

I will keep everyone updated on my progress.

What are the plans for the front stage?

400w, you wuss :P

HAHA...Well the md2 will be at .5 ohms soon enough giving each mag atleast 1000rms.

As far as front stage goes, right now I am leaning towards the seas lotus reference components. Let me know if you have any other good suggestions. Also, I would probably use a md22 from US amps to power it just to keep everything matching and looking clean. I just want to get everything soon so I can do something nice with the amps in the trunk.

Also, leaning towards streetwire for all the wiring. Right now I just used some old wire I had around the house. That is unless Nick can get me some of his special Wire. :slayer:

I don't think you'll complain about the lotus ref set, but I suppose it depends on what you like. Since you are putting in an 880 I'd run active and pick my own component pieces instead of a set.

For the right price i can fix the steering wheel problem, lets say two mags???

:-D

So is/are the mag(s) sealed or ported?

Damn, that matched up pretty good! I was so happy with the fit in my car that I scrapped my original idea and am going with something a little similar.

I was going to go with the Lotus set as well as I wanted drop in replacements and the Seas beat out the Revelator in IB, so I think you're on the right track.

Look into Rainbow as well. If I ever had to buy a complete component set, that would be the manufacturer I'd choose. Also, talk to Nick if you want to go the DIY route. He's great with crossovers!

I may be looking at different components. I guess for someone like myself who hasn't heard a ton of high end components, I will barely notice a difference between some of the much cheaper priced ones. Rainbow is one of my other options, but the Seas Reference ones are still a big possibility. So we will see how that all goes.

And yes, a few years back that wiring kit did come from walmart haha.

But I wrote to streetwires yesterday to see what I can get from them.
