[QUOTE="req, post: 1139044, member: 555713"] first thing id do, is hit up [URL="http://www.weldingsupply.com"]http://www.weldingsupply.com[/URL] and get a roll of 0awg. then id scoop a few kinetikHC2400's and make a nice cell outta them. id see if i could also fit that 220AMP alt in the engine too, thatd help much. then id prolly go ahead and lay a fat slab of concrete across the entire floor of the van like an inch or two thick. find a place to put your batteries and wire (under the cabin for the 0awg id go for) and try and bolt your grounds to the chassis of the car, and cover with some corrosion stopping stuff (id put some secondskin spectrum\sludge on there lol) lets see, then id make a box, that goes from the B pillars back to just before the end of the van, as high\wide as possible. itd prolly be 1.5" thick (two layers of .75" MDF for each wall). the rear wall would prolly have a hollow 4" deep chamber that id fill with concrete, and then id screw the top on to make it solid. the baffle would be as deep as the port would need. id prolly look into eaither digital designs 9515\17's, audioque 15's, or possibly a new woofer comming out locally by elevation audio (a new SPL driver via TC sounds)... then id look into getting some big ass amps (4kw each or more) and run them to each speaker. tons of 4x4 bracing inside, all rounded corners inside, and then fiberglass the face of the box to the roof\walls\floor to completly seal off the cab from the box\rear of the vheicle. then sounddeaden the PISS out of it with tons of SS sludge - and if you are up for it, build a whole new dashboard\floor\doopanels and reinfoce the windows, and get some nice door clamps to hold them shut too. lots of stuff goes into designing the box internals. but everything else is pretty easy, but time consuming.
