[stangsounds 10+ year member]

ok im getting conflicting answers, i want to get either some crystal Cpe components, or some infinity references, running off a jbl p80.4, what are the front door and rear panel speaker sizes? i think the rears are 5x7/6x8 , 3-1/2 in the dash, but are the door speakers 5-1/4 or 6-1/2....or do they both fit?

yeah and try to stay away from oval speakers. And one nice component set up front with an amp to power em would be sufficient. Rear fill wouldnt be needed. Whats ur price range for components

nah i dont like emptiness behind me, plus im getting a really good deal on some crystal components (the good ones) and a component/coaxial speaker set... and this is less that $200, these will be running off a jbl p80.4

I got 6.5" CDT CL-61's in the doors of my 89 GT, had to do some trimming on the door panels. If I remember right, the stockers were 6.5".

Need to get quieter mufflers on my 5.0 so I can hear my stereo betetr //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Stockers in the Door are 5.25". Can be cut and modified to fit the 6.5" though. Highly recommended. I have 5.25" and wish I would have went with the 6.5". I like rear fill and have 5x7" in the back. Most of the sound comes from the better 5.25" though. Yeah, just put an x-pipe on my 5.0 and it is a little loud now. Yeah, good times.

I'm thinking of an x pipe and a pair of dynomax's.....music to my ears....well other that what my cd player gives me //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

I know it's a little off topic, but I got a MAC X-Pipe with dynomax super turbo mufflers. Nice deep tone that bites when stepped on. Nice sound. Wouldn't change a thing. Not too loud, but does turn a few heads, and it doesn't make me deaf either. That's where my stereo comes into play.

yeah mine has an H-pipe and some flowmaster 40series deltaflows....all came with the car...

 

[stangsounds 10+ year member]

so how do i go about modifying/cutting to fit a 6.5 speaker

 

[Bobyota 10+ year member]

jimmyslide, that exhaust pretty much sounds like what I want. Now just gotta stop spending on audio stuff to be able to afford new exhaust //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Trust me, one of the best investments you'll ever make. Sounds mean, and adds power as well. I got a much better result than I was expecting. Impresses the ladies too. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
