On my S10 I planned to mount my 2nd batt on a batt tray that was connected to the frame rail under the front of the bed.

i was hoping to be able to put it inside my truck but i dont think there gunna be any room left to do that so i gotta find a place.

It would be much better if you just got it metered. No one will be able to tell you what you are going to hit, too install/vehicle dependent
L7's get loud, i'd say you might be able to get a 150 with those and that power but that would requre a bit of work, So I'll be conservative and say 145-147 if done right

with an audio-control meter in the port?

The biggest that you can from a reputable company.

what is your objective here? is it to outboom someone or are you truly just looking for an estimate. IMO there's no way to estimate what's gonna show on the meter. Its all about how good the install is and how all the components (car, equipment, weather) respond for that burst

well i wanna outboom someone and i also one day when i get the bigger alt and another batt start competing locally with it. see what i can do with it.

trying to be louder than someone is the wrong reason to buy whatever equipment you buy (unless its a competition league). If you really wanna make whomever feel inferior, get smaller subs that handle high power. Then you're like "you have all that stuff, all I got is this 1 10 and I'm louder."

In all seriousness, buy whatever you get because you LIKE the sound and loudness for yourself. Don't make car audio a pissing contest
