    How To: Install Amp Wiring Kit

    That's a lot more work than is necessary. You'd have to pull your headliner out to do it, and, well, I'd hate to put that thing back up in there. Anyways, if you can wrap the wire in some type of rubber (or any other type of insulator), you shouldn't really have to worry about ground noise. You...

    new to soundeadening..need info

    Well, first off if you have subs in the trunk, I'd line the trunk lid to stop any unwanted vibrations there. Then I'd pay attention to the doors the most. If you can put more than one layer, that'd be good. Once you remove your door panel, put a layer on the plastic itself if possible, then...

    Stock exhaust pipe pricing?

    If you're good at or know someone who is good at welding and is willing to help you, you could custom-fab you a turbo-back exhaust. Use a stock exhaust as a template, buy some pipe off ebay along with some mandrel bends (couple of 45*'s and maybe a 90*) and weld.

    which exhuast spool vs. apex

    As far as a custom exhaust is concerned, check on ebay for some pipe. You can get 2, 4' pieces of straight 3" pipe for about 30 bucks, get a couple of pair of mandrel 90* bends for about 45, a welder (preferably tig), and go to town. Make sure everything lines up, though. Use the stock exhaust...

    GTS Celica vs. MSP

    Why do you always have something negative to say about a MSP? If you want to b**** about how bad this car is, take it somewhere else.

    installers..fiberglass enclosure

    Don't worry about the fiberglass just yet. Get you a pencil and paper and draw out what you want your box to look like, then measure your car, and cut your MDF base. That should be the first thing you do. Like all those guys have said, make most of your box out of MDF. Fiberglass is strongest...

    Mandrel bending?

    I live in Helena, AR (about 1.5 hours south of Memphis and 2 hours southeast of Little Rock, AR) and I was wondering if anyone in either of those two cities used a mandrel to bend pipe? I've been looking all over for someone who does. If you know of anyone who does, please let me know. It'd be...

    DVD and LCD:best bang for buck

    This guy is absolutely right. My cousin, who lives in Memphis, got a ticket for having one of those Vivid Videos showin in his 1999 Silverado. It was total BS...but funny as hell :D

    How To: Install Amp Wiring Kit

    If you're a sound quality freak, mounting it directly into the floor isn't the best route. If you have the room, mount it on a piece of wood (insulator). This prevents any type of ground noise associated with screwing it straight into the metal. Just my $.02

    Suggestions on Subwoofers

    Just like some people have mentioned before, I'd go with Adire or Resonant Engineering (Respl.com). They make some excellent subs (for both sound quality and SPL). Just my $.02... btw...this is my first post, so yeh. Hopefully I'll be getting a MSP sometime within the next few months.
