[QUOTE="metalheadjoe, post: 8769545, member: 581422"] My gosh that price sounds really high. I don't think 800w in the trunk is going to be enough power to disturb the peace, though we all define that differently. Do you know any details about the custom box they proposed? What percentage of the price tag was labor (most guys here do our own installs, so need a budget for just equipment)? I would go with a single 15" in the 1-1.5kw range, a 3kw amp, and a truly custom ported box designed around your application. You might need to upgrade your alternator depending on what yours is rated for, and more battery capacity never hurts. I have used my fair share of kicker products, but I don't see myself purchasing any ever again. However, if a shop is doing your install, they probably won't like you denying them the product sales. Keep us updated with your progress! - Joe [/QUOTE]
