First off, building the false floor. Had to raise it up on 2x4s to make clearence for the batteries.

Running the 0 gauge, I actually managed to fit 3 runs of it down one side of the car :)

How do you like the Eclipse CD 5000, and the Rainbow front stage.

Liking it so far, what size alt do you have?

Looks great my man! Are you using all of that 75 feet of wiring, plus the other 35 feet!?! That a LOT of wiring...crazy how you managed to fit it all through there.

Post some more pictures when you have completed up the install!

I love the Cd5000 and the Germaniums, very loud and strong midbass. As of now I have a stock alt, but on full tilt the sundowns where all seeing 13.x at idle!!

And yea I was surpised I got it all in there too, I just took my time (took me a few hours), 4 runs of the 0/1. I think it helps ALOT.

Some pics of the box build....should be done by Sat night at latest...

BTW this is a very complicated box, the port is lifted 3" (doing a false floor) to clear the amps but the subs get that extra 3" for airspace.

Specs are 4.8 cubes after displacement @ 32hz.

VERY nice equipment and install.

Only thing I'd suggest is using some sheetmetal and filling in the big hole in each door and deadening that also.

First attempt it wouldn't fit, so we had to build a new false floor that was thinner and shorter.

Got it in though

Any bigger and it wouldn't of fit!

This is a really nice build log 727, and the results look promising. Great photos as well. I dont envy you with having to run all that 0 gauge wire. I had a question, did you just double up the connection up front at the alternator to hook them all up? Install looks great and I bet its loud in the Lac.

Both runs are connected to the battery. BTW, try adding a few more runs and see how well it helps, as of right now I don't even need an alternator really ;).
