10k rms electrical upgrades?

[Jason Brubaker 10+ year member]

yep just get ready.. then my amp rack and batt rack needed to bolt it down but its sitting about the gas tank wher ei cant get a wrench and the sides run perfectly in line with my **** leaf springs... but alot fo that stuff is going to be different.. I cant imagine that stuff in a car.. i got mine so spaced out all the wiring and stuff is alot easier to get to and the ampsd are easy.. in a car you will be piling **** in a tiny spt or even a small truck.. have to stack amps stack batts.. i bet its frustrating

I'd love to build a huge system but funds do not allow at this time, nor does the wife. I'd first have to find a vehicle and go from there, I was curious though has anyone ever used a short bus?

because they been around since back in th day

I know that, "The Lab" has been around since like what, the late 80s? Didn't they make a 20,000 watt "amp" called the Drag Queen but that amp got banned from dBDrag because it was basically a DC-AC converter and can't play music?

i am running 16 2500 watt amps. matching the gains w/ vom took a while but no problem. i tried a maxxlink and did not like it. maybe i did not understand how to operate it. i am running 2 memphis line drivers and daisy chained the sub amps. sounds much better.

i had a 250 h/o alt and 5 100ah batts on a stetsom 14k2d and it does pretty good i dont drop below 11.8 full tilt driving. Now i got a 14k2e on the same electrical and it should do better on what i have now

you have got to be willing to cut holes like this in places that they dont belong

Then under your hood looks like this

You have to be willing to sacerfice your car by cutting it if you need to make something fit and have it get the hell beat out of it when you are meter or demoing. Be ready for mirror,center counsels, having the body cracked, sun roofs stop working and fall apart and other things on your car to fall apart

Then you also got to be ready to blow some things up you arent expecting like 1000 + dollar amps and subs. Pay for recones when every you rip your sub apart or at the end of the year to have it ready for next year. If you are like me you will have a fire or 2 in your car.

Be ready to buy and sell your equipment because you cant ever keep anything for ever since you have to have the new model to keep up with the changing of equipment.

You will also have to upgrade the suspension and other things if you plan on driving it.
