178.44621 will be your final score. world record here. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

i would say its possible.

biggest questions is, how much deadening did you use?

should do it... but again I've seen better setups hitting lower, and lesser setups hitting higher... have fun no matter what //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Like I said, you'll be close no doubt, with some playing around you should be able to get it. Take the rear speakers out of the rear dash, play around moving the box as much as you can, and see where that gets you, also try moving seat configurations around and trying tons of little things like that to help. It's doable, dBDrag legal style might be tough but I'm sure you'll do it.

PS Dave, are you running Street C next season? Or Street Max?

Charge your battery overnight. That should help. I would say you got about a 500,000 out of a 1,000,000 chance.

Considering I had a Tantrum 1200.1 hooked up to 2 12" L7's, id say if you even have a decent box you should already be hitting 140. Have you ever gotten your car tested?

I'm in the same boat as all of you. Same setup even, just older version of subs. BTW: where can I get my system tested? I live in Dallas if that helps...

Thanks, Matt

i have about 4 layers of peal and seal on entire trunk, had 6 on lid but it peeled off, 6x9s are removed, seats dont fold down. i'm not asking anybody to predict my score, im asking if you think what i have is capable of it.

140 db's isnt very hard to do man should do it easy in the right box with enough watts and 6 layers on the truck lid....****!!! lol

trunk lid on my car is weird, pretty flimsy. lets just say its not as flimsy anymore. i'll find out what i hit next week.
