Well due to my phone constantly shutting off I wasn't able to get any building pics unfortunately, but started building around 4pm and had the box made and subs in at 4 am. Still gotta wire up the amps, and hook up the alternator. First time ever wrapping a box, it went ok. Box is on the small side, 16 cubes, tuned to 32hz with 200 inches of port area. Wheels aren't on, just got them set next to it to see how they'll look.

Looks nice, but dang that's a small box for those.
Thanks and yea I know //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif probably would be louder if I had fewer subs and gave those the proper size, but we'll see. Amps will be at .5 so subs should be getting some decent power to make up for the small box.

 
Well, got everything running tonight and WOW I am definitely happy. Voltage with this alternator is much better, also did the big 3. Within 10 minutes of getting everything hooked up wanted to take a quick cruise and got a noise violation //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif Anyways hopefully will have some vids tomorrow, but so far I can say it was worth the change for sure! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

 
For 4 18"s, it should damn near knock that girl out... Not hating but you need to do some experimenting..... Power and cone area may not make up for the loss of cubes.....
x2 her hair should be going crazy with 4 18's and 6k, and it seems to be barely moving. :/ Do a wall so you can get the proper air space you need

 
No matter what I have ever did, I've never had good luck with a hair trick. Two 18's in 15 cubes, three 18's in 15 cubes and now 4 in 16 cubes, had a wall, had slot port/big aero ports.

 
the box looks good.. but..try 2 18s in 18 cubes and let us know what happens..
Thanks but yea I'm not competing and I really like the way it looks and it is loud enough for a daily driver. If I switch anything it will be to nightshades which work well in 4 cubes.
