So i got meterd today

I haven't meterd my Focus ST yet....I have 2 RE 12's in there right now...no real Bass amp the rear chs of a PPI 4125 so maybe 500 watts...maybe a 135...lol
Dont really like the acoustics of my ST. Just dont seem to sound the way I want it to sound. Kinda hard to explain really. I mean it gets loud enough I suppose. Thinking of sealing it back off from trunk and just getting some better componets and going active and deaden the whole car from top to bottom and maybe I will be happier.

 
Not saying that. Dont read into things, we are just trying to tell you with the equipment you have, which is good, you should be doing a little bit better. Maybe get some more tunning, upgrade to some nice 0/1g wire and do the big 3. Might need to get a bigger altenator or who knows, something might be wrong. We dont know, havent heard it. I just know that is pretty low for 2 l7's off 2500 watts, even sealed. I mean if you are happy, then you are happy, could end thread there, but you posted numbers of your setup, which means you wanted opinions. So either take it with a grain of salt or do something about it.
i wasnt reffering to you, read the quote. I was wanting opinons on how the setup was if the numbers were decent. This car is getting ready to be sold im getttin ready to rip the system out as we speak i cant afford 10 dollar fuses that last 10 minutes a piece.

 
learn to take better pics next time. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif
Your a dumbass dude the pics are fine they show the numbers and thats all that matter keep your cocksucker shut.

 
Screw fuses. I havent ran one in years lol. I started popping a shitload of them when i started getting loud, and after going through like 10 of them in a few weeks, i said screw it, and havent ran one since. Just make sure your powerwire is ran VERY out of the way of any moving/hot parts in the engine bay , and near no sharp pieces under the carpet and you shouldnt have a problem.

The score deffiently can be improved, try a ported box or something, but it can be a hell of a lot better. I popped a 140 with a pair of re8''s and a re 35.1 a while back in my cavalier, but that thing was nutty for a pair of 8''s (they were the first series 8''s with the goldish color motor, for some reason when i swapped the ones with the chrome motors they werent as impressive?)

Its all about getting help from someone who know's a thing or 2. You have access to a meter, and thats one of the most important things.

What vehicle ya getting next?

Hopefully a blazer xtreme.

 
That should be a hell of a lot easier to get loud, throw a ported box, sub up, port back and with your current setup, id say low to mid 140's would be pretty easy (althought id upgrade the wire before anything)

FYI running powerwire in a blazer is a MAJOR PITA. Most people ive talked to decided to just run it under the vehicle, and drill a hole, put in a gasket and bring it up through the back

The first thing being done to it is 300 amp alt.
