Nice job, Jedi. Are you still running that exact same set up or have you changed anything? I'm thinking of upgrading my system from bose.....but I'll think I'll start a new thread for that.

I haven't changed a thing and I still LOVE the sound. Thinking of adding a little more dynamat to the front doors sometime soon.

he's also getting a 32 inch lcd in the trunk for car shows,.,

anyone know how much square footage of dynamat is needed for just trunk only and then for whole car?

What would something like that run on? Extra battery?

First of all, looks like you did a good job! I have a few questions though...
1. Why did you use tweets in the rear? Aren't the Kappa 6x9's 3-ways? Why not just use a good 6.5" component system in the back?
2. How did you hook up the tweets in the rear? Did you use a crossover? If so, which one?
3. What tool did you use to cut the holes for the tweets in the rear?

1. The bose system had tweets back there so just figured I'd be thorough.
2. Tweeters in the rear are using the Infinity Crossovers.
3. In the words of Einstein, "Make things as simple as possible, never simpler." We used a razor blade and a steady hand.

Thanks for the compliments! I always get a smile when I see someone's bumped this thread.

i've sat in jedi's car many times and this shyt rocks! it topped out my DB meter when we tested it..haha

Thanks bro! HAHA, I almost forgot we topped out that DB meter at our Dyno Day. That was good stuff. Oh, and I'm thinking of turning up the amp a bit more... you're gonna need a bigger db meter.

The RX8 has a trunk?

Jorge, how much dynamat did you use for the trunk?

My car is now Famous!

Nice work Jedi!

Jorge you need a vacation. Wouldn't you love to come to Orlando and upgrade my system? I'll take you to Disney World.

HAHA!! It's too hot and humid over there....
How bout you drive your GTO over here for SevenStock weekend and we'll talk.

ah yeah a GTO at Sevenstock. That would go over well.

I do need some professional advice though. I'll send you a PM later.

what was your reading on the db meter?

the db meter read very very loud...
when jedi shows up for the meets
it's like a scene from jurrasic park
boom boom booom.

It's awesome that they did a quick snag of the pic... it's labeled as "http://www.4080enclosures.com/shop4080/store/catalog/RX8boxJedi.jpg"

Feel the force!

4080 has requested more pics of my stereo setup. They should be posted on their site soon.

I was just curious as to the numbers, like 140's, 150's etc. Mine was projected in the mid 140's but we never took a reading, and now we're redoing the entire system. (oops lol) Cool to see member's rides get props, hopefully I'll be getting some Soundstream love when mine is all said and done

I'm pretty sure we can squeeze a 20b in there.

PM me whenever you get a chance.

Canary: XdeedubbX was sitting in the back of the car with the DB meter, I don't really remember what the readings were though.

Looks great. And I'm sure it's plenty loud. But there is no way you're doing LEGAL mid-140's from two 10"s in small sealed enclosures in an 8.

Thanks fire!
I think the meter went up to 130 or maybe 135. We pegged it but I don't remember what the max was. (i know we didn't hit 140 though)
