I installed my btl15 / kx2500.1 combo about a year ago. Although not metered yet, the setup sounds right on par with an older setup that was doing 145db all day at or around 40-45Hz.
here's an older vid, i hope to get some new ones soon.
Some of you may recall i posted a thread about 6 months ago about a large crack in my spare tire well. I'm positive I've never bottomed out hard enough to cause the tire well to hit the ground causing any cracks or splits. Judging by the amount of flex in this particular spot, it makes sense that over time the metal finally gave and cracked open. The plan of action was to sand down, jb weld, then deaden both sides and pray it held. Welding was out of the question as i cant afford to pay someone, and if i did it myself id probably cause the car to explode as the spot is right next to the gas tank. Knowing my past of car explosions its best i left welding out of this.
About a month ago I noticed a weird rattle. Upon searching I found the joint where my center tail light's plastic housing meets the trunk were ripped completely off and the tail light was dangling inside my trunk. I ended up making a less than aesthetically pleasing bracket to hold the housing in place and CA glued what was left of the plastic housing sides in place where they would normally bolt to the trunk. i decided not to photograph this as its an ugly looking fix.
Then this week i discover that 2 support brackets that brace the outer layer of trunk metal to the inner layer of trunk metal were completely ripped off the trunk. Also discovered were a few hairline cracks in the trunks inner metal body. Pics of this in my shortly following post
