where did that ghey ass box come from?
the people that say that have only built small boxes and never gone big. or they only burp in that small of a box. if you want big. build big...nightshade 18's like small boxes...4 cubes per 18 is fine
80
run the ignition from the regulator straight to the battery and the idle will set still. and not fluctuate.well i got my alts on and running externally regulated cant figure out why at idle the voltage jumps around is this normal pics should be up soon
i used 8 guage on all three. ground, ignition and field wire from the alternator. its about the right size for the terminals on those external regulators.how large of wires should i use on the ground and ignition
but you dont have all your amps and your box you'll be using either. so i wouldnt worry about that right now.other than the idle voltage issue full tilt it only drops to 14 volts
I am telling you I have ran the nightshade 18's have you...They are designed for smaller enclosure 4-5 cubes is what the shine in...but you dont have all your amps and your box you'll be using either. so i wouldnt worry about that right now.
i really hope you take my advice on building that box bigger with a big azz slot port. they are 18s!!!! i dont care that someone else says 4 cubs works good. i'm telling you 6cubes each will give you everything your looking for. the low frequency and high numbers.
We tested the NS 18 in multiple boxes ...ranging from 4-7 cubes per sub ...and 4-4.5 has been were they shine @ ...so theres really no need to build the box bigger ,when you will have to shrink it up ...but you dont have all your amps and your box you'll be using either. so i wouldnt worry about that right now.
