For now only a stock alternator (180 amp), buying a XS D2400 for the front, still doing research/not sure on what/how many batts to get for the rear, big 3 upgrade with 1/0 OFC wire and also amp power/grnd with same 1/0 wire. What you think? I know I'll need a higher output alternator but...

Ah yea thanks that must have popped up while I was posting haha. Thanks bro.

Do you know where I can get one and how much they usually run?

I will look into the oscilloscope, thanks guys. Well I really wanted the BL but I have an ISF and my trunk space is very limited. I went with a sealed box just because I will still have trunk space left. The BL's I read can't be placed in a sealed box.

So I found a good deal on a saz-3500 amp and have ordered 2 FI Q 12" subs (1500 Rms/each). I was just curious as if this would be too much power for those subs. I know that I will have to keep the gain down as to prevent clipping and such (I think I saw some tutorials online on how to set the...

Thanks, so since subsonic filter doesn't matter in my application, what would I set it to?

what is Vb in this equation

Thanks for the heads up, my lex is already out of warranty so not worried about that but I will be hooking up the Stinger meter asap to get an idea of what my voltage is reading and go from there. Solid advice though thanks! Why is that I have only heard good things about them? What do you...

Are sealed boxes tuned to a certain frequency or is that just for ported enclosures? The reason I ask is I have a sealed box and was wondering when I get my system hooked up, what I should set the subsonic filter to. I heard usually a few hertz below the "tuned" hertz. Here are the specs of...

Thanks guys for all the input. I have ordered 2 12" Fi Q's, the 1/0 gauge wires (for rear battery run, amp run, and big three) and the stinger meter so far. I will be ordering the yellow top battery and amp next paycheck (most likely sundown 2500). Will keep yall updated! Oh and can I just...

Is there a way I can add a digital meter so I can know what my resting voltage is at every start up? Where would I hook that meter up to? I think I can manage the battery and the 1/0 wire. How would I charge the battery every week if I do hammer hard at any given time?

Where exactly should I put the deadener, just the trunk? Also you have any good deadener you can recommend and how much sq. feet I should get? I'm trying not to spend hundreds of dollars on it but will take your advice. Thanks in advance.

Sweet man what you gonna have bumpin in there? Oh and do you know of anywhere I can get a custom ported box for my ISF? I picked this box because it fits nicely into my trunk but if I could get someone to build me a ported box similar to this one I'd be all over it so I could get that monster...

Thanks for all the good info guys. Yea I kinda freaked when he said 3 batteries, no clue where I would even put them all. But like you said since I already have the box why not try it. A buddy suggested to keep my stock battery and add a Power XS batt in the trunk and then go from there.

Hey Guys, Just decided to install a system in my 2008 ISF. I have this sealed enclosure which I bought from a friend and got it because it still leaves me with a decent amount of trunk space in my little trunk: I'm sure that's probably not the best box ever, but eh I like it and it seems...
