The manufacturers minimum recommended volume never gives the best sound quality or low freq extension. We were talking about sounding good, not raw spl. If you want spl you could mount one in your headrest.
That's because the box volume was obviously too small, not because the subs don't respond lower then 100hz. Also, that is a terrible place to put a subwoofer. You get way more sound by placing it in the rear corner. You basically had a midbass, not a sub.
You cant hear 20hz in a car, the wavelength is longer then the distance from you to the speaker. You can hear it outside of the car but this is not 1990 and NWA is not at the top of the charts anymore.
The sub in my car now was cheap and easy and sounds good to me.
Also, even though the f3 of the enclosure might be 60hz, does not mean it does not have the capability to play lower frequencies, it just takes more power to do it.
BTW, once you have tenitis and your ears ring all the time like mine, you will not be so interested in listening to anything...
I hear you but what sounds good to you in your Supra does not have to win any competitions. I have a 12" JL sub in my spare tire well, its works great and plays low enough for me. I threw it together in about an hour, it's nothing special. The lid still closes and it takes up no space in the...
I used to install car audio and I agree those 6.5" Bazooka subs were impressive for such a small driver. They were best used in pairs though, because the power handling was not very high. Another cool setup was to use three JL Audio 6w0 subs in a very small sealed enclosure, it sounded like a...
Most car owner priorities: (i'm not totally excluded either)
1: looking cool
2: being "different"
3: buying lots of aftermarket stuff
4: being fast
5: looking cool

10: functionality of aftermarket cool looking stuff

Larger fuel injectors will affect your maft tuning which will lower the karman freq which will affect the point when fuel cut happens. So fuel injector size will determine how much boost you can run before fuel cut. Riddle me that!:icon_razz
Anyhew, I rarely get mad about Supra arguements...
The maft pro sounds really cool, I am ordering one myself. The map sensor option is the way to go. Any type of air flow meter will not be as reliable as a map based system. If you pop a ic pipe, it still runs. A small vacuum leak will not be a big problem. No more stalling from your vented bov...
