Budget Build- Ford Pinto

[Winter_C 10+ year member]

Ok so...Right now i have (2) 12" Rockford P3's..4 Ohm DVC

I think I am going to sell them and buy either 4 or 6 12"s or 4 15"s...I aint decided on wall or laying down in hatch firing up...but I think 150Db in pinto would be cool as hell, seem far fetched?

Opinions? What subs?

if i can do it in a geo metro, you can do it in a pinto.

You're gonna blow the rust right off the body! Awesome!

it will be easier to do your 150DB if you do a wall.

You're going to blow up the gas tank with that much bass //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif.

And Ford already settled that lawsuit //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

i love the choice of cars. since pinto isn't worth a crap to drive, might as well make it loud.

some ppls "budet" is like 2,000, which is more than enough to do what u want.

at the same time, some ppl dont wanna spend over 500.

it helps to know what your gear your lookin at.

i say add to those RF subs u already got

I probably couldnt do much over like 500-600...but i also got a kicker KX1200.1...which would be one of my amps for subs...or i could sell it aswell uping my budget by like 200?...but what if i did like two m,ore p3's...you think 4 P3's would do even close to 150?..

150 for 600? You have to have some great connections. Id spend the money on a different car. My family car was a pinto when I was little and even I hated it.

audioque has the hdc3 18 inch subs on sale for $249 each.

yeah not gonna happen with that kx1200.1 and 4, a wall will help tho.

so maybe find a 2-3k amp, and build from there.

also, to get that 150, you gotta bring electrical too.

Yeah optima Red on the way...as far as alt, not keeping this motor so if i just put smaller pully on alt, should help for now right? CBA spending couple hundred $$ for alt when motor will be gone in 6 months...but uh either i will sell this kicker and buy bigger amp or probably buy another kicker like this...i really do like this amp unless some1 says diff one(s) i can get that would be maybe cheaper or better...like i said total investment in subs/amps cant be much more than like 600-800
