okay? WOW!..i guess?Its a statement to show the ADVANCEMENT of the MECA format and an example of how the other formats have essentially grown stagnant.
Lets check a timeline here...
usaci goes by 4 ohm rating... amps come out that are rated for 1 watt and such at 4 ohm.
meca comes out, goes by the highest power rating of the amp
MECA starts driveby and reality
meca starts catching on, and amps come out that are highly underrated, or rated only at a higher load (the 20.1 was a 700 watt 2 ohm amp in 04)
usaci changes so that the rating system is much more like MECA's max power rating system
MECA changes to the fuse rule, eliminating cheater amps.
USACI starts street beat, modeled after driveby and bass race.
MECA has set trends, usaci has followed... the MECA format is much more advanced and will continue on that path. I'm too cheap to buy a CRX, yet your too cheap to buy some fuses... hrm...
2 12's isn't a terrible option - your hatch is apparantly larger than I thought.I wanna know how big your boxes are for 2 12's and 1 15. I have a Hifonics TX1505 and about 7.5 cubes gross for a box in my hatch. Now I got a quote from Mark and he said he would recommend 1 15. But I'm thinking 2 12's have more cone area AND they'll be getting proper power rather than with the 15 I would be getting scared of over powering it.....
What would you do and do you think I'll be loud. lol
EDIT: thanks squeak
okay? WOW!..i guess?
am i sitting here saying USACi is superior to MECA or something? maybe i missed something that would caused this to be referanced?
fyi, im done with usaci...if i choose to compete anymore, which i most-likely will not...it'll be in dbdrag. for the simple reason, thats its the only santion around where ill be living...which is the only reason we competed in USACi.
iirc, our # was higher than his? oh, thats right tho...we had the 20.1's...but didnt have a wall, 18v system etc...what a joke.ok mark won mr2 by 10db so whats your point again?
why do you guys try to compare two orgs...youre ****ing stupid..mr1
not to downplay things... but thats basic stock... which is supposed to be the equivelant to AS in MECA...'
You definitely wouldn't have won the equivelant stock class.
why it doesnt ****...to you...You have a MECA sucks banner in your sig why?
The post was more or less to give some examples of why MECA doesn't ****, usaci is just used as an example //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif .
I enjoy the format and believe it will be the most fair and feasable for those without buttloads of $ in the next few years.
I definitely don't do most of my business on this forum //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif. THere have only been a handful of boxes sold directly through here.
On that note, I used and reccomend R's because they are cheap and work well.. what more do you want?
4 out of the 8 pics of boxes on the site are for subs other than type R's.... so I'd say there have been quite a few boxes for other woofs. I don't have a formula for just the type R... I have a formula that works for just about any woof.
There was plenty of street cars that beat his SPL score. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif Reality is a different story though.iirc, our # was higher than his? oh, thats right tho...we had the 20.1's...but didnt have a wall, 18v system etc...what a joke.
why do you guys try to compare two orgs...youre ****ing stupid..
youre right tho...we would have lost in MECA..lol jeez
we sucked, our scores sucked, the 20.1 is the only reason we won, and team phat hertz would have destroyed us..happy?
And you think that matters to anyone in this thread? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gifPlus, the SQ on the Type R is nothing to rave about IMHO.
155.7...do i give a flying **** what note it was that he did he # @???what note was your score at and what was the score?
okay, then why is it that we posted a higher #...but, he is louder...lol???On a side note, 4 15's in a box, under the window line vs. 2 12's in a wall, 4 20.1's off a single 12v battery vs. 1 2500d on 18v's. I'd say it was a fair battle. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
i assumed most, or alot, of your business was here since everyone is like " YOU GOOTTA TCAB MANG, DMAN MUSTZZ BE LOUD, SPECIALLY WITH DEM TYPE R's"
Not that the type R is bad but there are other subs that work just as well for similar prices. Plus, the SQ on the Type R is nothing to rave about IMHO.
Compareable to w3v2's.
Ill run IA 187's all day long before i go with the Type R trend. Speaking in facts, assuming i get the money up, ill be compeating dB Drage and MECA next season with a pair of 187 12's in dBdrag Street B (i think) or MECA AS2, maybe even squeaz into 1.
shouldnt be too hard to beat my states record in thoes classes with is like 143 or something. lol.
i geuss nobody puts any time or effort into such a limited fuse rating.
