[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8169446, member: 614752"] If all you got for even 8K is a 4000W amp 4 mid level big box store 12's and a slightly upgraded electrical system and wires sticking out all over the place you got totally robbed. Amp mounted to the box? If you're really rolling in dough, you should fly yourself to a big SPL show and see what is really loud. 163dB is the sound pressure INSIDE a jet engine turbine. I assure you this did NOT happen for you. At 160+ db EVERYTHING breaks. Glass, gaskets, welds, brake lines, woofer cones, etc. At 164 your keys in the ignition would stand upright, a can of soda in the car would explode, a piece of paper on the dashboard would turn to confetti. The only way the car in that picture made 163dB is if you filled it with explosives and blew it up. Odds are very high that that build didn't even do 150. There are very very few vehicles that are even louder than 155, fewer still than can actually do more than play 60hz+ tone for 3 seconds at that level. AND the sort of shop or person that makes 150dB+ builds owns a real SPL meter. If you "saw a 163" it was a cellphone app SPL measurement or some other complete bullshit. In short, your story is utter bullshit. [/QUOTE]
