[patrick1202 10+ year member]

ok so i am getting my system in my sig metered for the first time, actually first time i have ever metered anything! it is going to be a clinic. i want to know if there is certain things i should have, and how the process sorta goes i do not wanna go tommorrow and look stupid. i am not sking what DEEEEEBEEEEEEZ'S I WILL HIT

but i would like to know what could be an average number i could be looking at my system pulling if you need to know anything just ask!

also i was gonna compete but im pretty sure i would be in a higher class than am street 1 because my second battery and i currently do not have a fuse going to my amp because the wire from the second battery and my memphis is really short and i need to get a little longer one to put a fuse!

play with you rseat positioning if you can, remove headrests, stuff like that

probably in the high 130's depending on who built/designed the box....

what kind of car, wha tkind of box?

have someone sit or press on truck to keep pressure in

ok it is a 1993 Chrysler concorde(car in my ava) can i take my back seat out??? and me and my friend built the box it is around 3.5 cubes after port and sub displacement tuned to around 33-34

i mean it is decently loud but not sure!

the gray car not red lol

would it even be possibel for a 140??? like any way?? anything i can do to possibly make score better like not play the sub for awhile before because of heat or stuff like that?

that shouldnt matter too much, you arent going w a ton of power.

where are they gonna put the meter?

dash, kick, headrest?

removing the backseat will help you out if it doesnt fold down as it is..

 

[patrick1202 10+ year member]

yea it does not fold down but is extremely easy to pull out do i have to leave it in there or can i just leave it out?? yea i know i am not going with alot of power but i do not think my ssd can handle anymore unless i burped it for really short will they use test tones to find my peak freq??

and not sure where they are gonna put it

i think it is a meca event? i am like 95% it is so it will be on a termlab

Should do close to 140 IMO. I had 1 Q 12 off 900rms doing 138 off TL in a sealed box in a trunk.

 

[iamamp3pimp 5,000+ posts]

ive had more doing less, and less doing more. but for a firt timer a 140 isnt likely....

ok, idk meca but i think they let you go w the door open.

close the passenger door/window, and leave the driver window open 4-5 inches if they let you

start there

go down slow, if the score drops, put it back up.

that is all...

140 meca style at the headrest would be tough for a trunk car, btw i had an intrepid terrible trunk rattle

 

[patrick1202 10+ year member]

yea my trunk rattle is not too bad but i have friends going too so i can have them push on trunk!

do i sit in it if the door is closed because be hard roll the window up and down from outside!

my friend had the memphis pr on two cvr's 15's hit a 138 i think but it was in a prefab.

 

[patrick1202 10+ year member]

i am just trying to do the best score i can i do not wanna look back and be like "**** i should have done this" lol my friends do not think i can or will hit a 140 so ... 140 would be a good surprise but im not lookin for it to hit 140!
