[QUOTE="blazian87, post: 8320730, member: 574798"] If you're looking for that crisp sound, you definitely need to get tweeters. You can try doing a 3 way front stage setup if you really don't want to get a sub. Requires a lot of custom work though. You can look into Tweeter soft domes, 4" midrange, and 8" midwoofer. Mount tweeter and midrange in the A pillar area or high up atleast and if u can fit the 8" in your doors, that would be great but if not just put them into an small enclosure and you'll be set. Treat your doors with sound dampening to get the best results with your speakers as well. You can also just do a 2 way active setup with Tweeter and 6.5" mids to keep it simpler. 6.5's don't really produce great bass so I have a feeling you'll crave for a subwoofer eventually. Depends on what you want. If you can live without bass, then a loud active front stage should do you well. Otherwise you can always just introduce your Type R into the mix if you still have it and implement it better.
