Don't wall it if you're going to compete. From what I was told by a 7x national champ, you're able to get just about as loud without walling it, and you stay out of the extreme classes...if you know how to get the most out of it.

Of course, this was with an 89, not an 87...

I just got back with it, took it to my dads place, i will take some pics, this weekend hopefully to show everybody, the bumpers are off of it, since the kid was redoing the car, and replaceing the bumpers with a body kit, so no bumpers which is fine because im putting a body kit on it anyways, and the interior is messy but no big deal, i got to rip it all out to do 2 layers of Fat Mat, and im going to dimond plate the floors and roof of the car instead of putting carpet back in it, and 2 15s or a single 15?? but two 12s im thinking to

iirc, smaller subs work better in a crx than larger

So you plan to do diamond plating for a headliner? Is it just me or does that sound like it will look tacky as ****.
