Shouldn't be to far off. I did a 141 with 2 of these and an old school Dirrected 1500D. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

Dam 2 8's in a DD doing over 140 on the TL is dam impressive!

I wanted to do some 8's, but ended up doing 10's for the first time in my new install. Never had a sub smaller than a 12 in the 17 years I have been into audio, lol!

Yes sir. They are in my wife's R32. It was on a new TL with the car all sealed up. The box is ported to 34Hz. She loves her Sound Splinter 8"s.

pics comin tonight, just got situated at home. the shit is loud for 3-8's! I am extremely happy and mid to low 140's is a possibility.

about time.

unfinished, but you get the idea, tiny little 1"x20" port, tuned to 35, and crap loads of power

looks good.

leavin box plain or carpet/paint?

 

[quest51210 10+ year member]

not too sure, maybe suede, maybe carpet, maybe textured black paint, not really sure at this time. I work, go to college, and working on 3 different local elections at the same time. not too much "me" time for the build.
