if you want them to really slam good you could get 2 JL Audio 1000/1 amps..

well first off, how much do u want to spend? 1 or 2 amps? have u thought about replacing your alternator?

i was also wondering if you knew how much w7's would cost? just wondering if took that into account, since ur friend just told u that they were good. which they are but for the money you can just as way better.

i can get like 2 12'' W7s without a box, becuz i want to glass my own box for like 800-900 dollars...

i have planned on replacing my alternator...

money really isnt a problem

A stinger alternator will cost u $700.00 in parts alone & u will need that to run two 1000/1's.

Also, what kind of car? To make W7 slam, you will need to built pretty good size enclosure, ported would make them sing... R U prepare to give up your trunk for a pair of W7's?

yes, i am going to glass my own enclosure...i am prepared to give up my entire trunk...for the alternator...my moms boyfriend and my dads friend who owns a radator shop can get me good alternators cheap...im buying a new car soon...and im not sure what im getting i hope like a low end BMW...or a civic

a low end BMW...or a civic

Er... those two really aren't even close to being in the same category.... I'm a bit confused on why you'd take a Civic over a BMW.

If you pay $700 for an alternator, you're being ripped off (unless of course it puts out like 400A).
