Are my goals accomplishable?

[Kenny Pollock 10+ year member]

The BTL ships tomorrow! I should have it sometime next week... I have to get a battery and some 1/0 before I can play with it and I need a high output alternator too; the stock 90 amp alternator is gonna be killed with the 20.1!

weldingsupply.com will be ur friend on the wiring.

Yeah, that's what I've been told... I might not need any wiring though, not 100% sure yet.

If I find room in the trunk for a battery, I can use the existing 1/0 and then cut up the 15 feet or so of 1/0 that I'm getting from nVRuckus when I have the time to take a drive and use it for the big 3, trunk battery to 20.1, trunk battery to distribution block...should be good enough.

with that much power your SX woulda prolly done better on the meter urping

havnt read the thread so just jumping in, i know my MT's laugh at the A3000s for burps, but 20.1 is alot better

weldingsupply.com will be ur friend on the wiring.

OR, any local welding shop.

About the same prices, no shipping, no waiting on delivery.

I can never understand why people dont buy it locally, rather than order it online.

Yeah I'm sure I could've pulled a few more decibels out of the SX if I did some of the upgrades I'm doing now (electrical system, 20.1, etc.) but the competitions down here are at car shops and require playing music/tones for 30 seconds... would smoke the SX for a 30 second "burp" on a 20.1 ;-)

I'm VERY excited to get the BTL, Scott is a great guy... and I expect the sub to be MASSIVE!

You have a LOT ahead of you for 150.

Took 5 batteries, A TON of cascade deadener, an Ohio Generator, 5kw and a pair of 15s in a halfwall in a muckstang to do it.

Life sucks //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif Would love to hit that 150, but it's gonna be a lot of work like you said.
From Scott:

Kenny,
Sub is all finsihed and drying. It will be packed and shipped out tomorrow.

The UPS tracking number for it is : XXXXXX

I have sent out about 21 18 BTLs, but yours is the first with all options

and the dual 1 Ohm coil. All other full option subs were D2. You should

have one heck of a daily driver with the 20.1 and .5 Ohms //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Edit: My SX was around 30 pounds... UPS says my BTL is 65, mmmmm

 

[T3mpest 10+ year member]

yeah, decibels are a *****, logarithms FTL! Think about it this way. You'd need 10 of your last cars systems playing at the SAME TIME, to hit 150!

so did my 12'' W7 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif
that SX 18 should be able to rock into the upper 40's.

I'm sure it wasnt nearly as loud to the ear though. AN it did nicely in the 40's for sure. But as of now thats where my 2 15" Q's rock

I Can't Wait For My Btl, Ahhhh.

 

[Kenny Pollock 10+ year member]

Picked up some 1/0 off of nVRuckus yesterday for the big 3 and the BTL is in Georgia (9 hours from me), although I won't get it until Thursday...

 

[Kenny Pollock 10+ year member]

I get the BTL tomorrow! It's already in Florida!
