My VW in progress ...

setup :::::
2001 VW Golf GL, 5 spd 2 door
Digital Designs M3 amp
Memphis Mojo 15Q1
X-Static Batcap 2000
Pioneer P4000DVD head unit w/iPod & bluetooth


Revamped spare tire storage area - you'll have to forgive some of the wiring, I had to leave some stuff loose so I could remove the hatch I made.


Replaced the stock cardboard cover with a 3/4" MDF carpeted one.


Cooling fan for the amp.


Enclosure


Opinions?

your ports look really close to the side not sure if that will hurt you but it looks like it will.

I was given a distance of ~3" from the side wall by a buddy from DB Drag, so I built to that concept. Making a 3cu ft box in that trunk was not easy, especially having to fit 2 6" aeros and a 15" sub LOL. but thx

yeah thats what people always tell me in my car, but.............

Oh OK from the pic they looked almost touching the side. But 3" should be cool

Yeah, I was told 3cu ft NET and 2 16" aeros tuned for around 49hz ... the car is peaking at 52hz right now doing a 152.4 in 0-600, i would like to see that go up of course but meh, it's still pretty friggin loud.

wats yer suggestion nate?

get rid of the fuses do a new top move the sub as far to the rear of the car in the box as possible then buy 1 more 15, and sink it in the box right where the seat folds up then you will be near 56 man.

In USACi the name of the game is cone area. BTW, have you ever seen a fuse in my vehicles?

do you have 4 runs of 4ga wire which run under your car?

At this juncture I do not have another 300-400$ for a second MOJO 15", and I don't have the power to push em. If I was to guess at amp output rigght now, I would say its around 2000-2500W and those subs are 2-4K ea.

You may even be louder with less of a sub.

fuses came in handy. I put the wires a bit too close to the CV half-shaft, they started rubbing and the friction chewed through one of the power leads....
