Yes. About 10 hours per day but two days non-the-less. It was going to be wired and covered in the next two days but my tranny went out and it hasn't been at my shop.

I also added another piece that you can't see when you look in the car. If the sun got bright enough, you could see through the tint on the rear windows and I didn't want to be able to see behind my panels. You would never even know that this piece was here if I didn't tell you. Shhhhhh! Don't tell anybody

I don't have any expectations for db. I don't really get into that too much. I'll meter it at the shop my buddy works at just to see what it does and then I'll dial everything back for daily sq listening.

There aren't enough shows around here to make it worth my time tweeking everything for more db's. I know it will be loud, just from the sound of it without glue and without the plexi wall on the back to make it fire forward.

i think it looks cool, it has alot of work and time in it, but i think thats gonna make it hard as hell to change lanes and ****. i would have made the open area bigger. its going to be like a major blindspot lol

At this level of fabrication, if you jump in and don't plan, you will have a blind spot. In order to get the proper airspace, the opening couldn't have been any bigger.

That's also what they make backup cameras for. lol. I already molded in the monitor for it up front, so the blind spot is covered. Thinking through a build before you start really helps.

dito nice build quality... but that shape isnt very good for a high db score due to the fact that the subs will try and cancel eachother out firing right into each other....
if that box is in 2 pieces and seperated i would just reverse polarity of one box so they are firing mostly in the same direction... but thats only if the box is seperated in half...

I'm not really building this box for SPL. I had the equiptment and wanted to think of a way to make people go.."Holy Crap!!!" LOL. I'll probably only test it out in terms of DB's once.
