So I finally got around to testing a few things with my new SPL project a 2001 Kia Sportage, and discovered 2 things.

1. Sub back is louder than sub up in this vehicle anyways.

2. 58hz is where all hell breaks loose..... ie; my resonant frequency.

So now its time to get ready for the up and comming competition season and the many rebuilds that will more than likely take place.
Hopefully I can be competitive in street B in Western Canada, after about a year layoff I feel kinda Rusty hehehehehehe.

hehehehehehehe well pics will be coming as the project progresses , I made a test enclosure sealed and used a DB meter from 30hz up to 65 hz and recorded my readings at each frequency.

Hopefully the new box will perform as good in car as on computer screen.
