[QUOTE="Wingman0121, post: 6871574, member: 620554"] Would a Batcap 2000 fit under the hood? If so then one in the front and one in the back should be enough for the 1500D(as long as you're running it no lower than 1 ohm) and they weigh 34 lbs each. If not then a Batcap 800 should definitely fit under the hood and run a 2000 in the back. The stock 150a alt will be fine(holy hell a Mini comes with an 150a alt??) just as long as you don't crank it for a long time or at a stop. You can make a custom box with birch wood which is lighter and stronger than MDF, then go with subs that have neodymium magnets as they're very light and more powerful than conventional subwoofer magnets but at the expense of cost. You can have a killer stereo in that Mini and still keep the added weight down to less than 140 lbs, maybe much less. If the decrease of speed bothers you then look for some performance parts like an intake, catback exhaust or other simple to do things to compensate. [/QUOTE]
