Excuse my camera.. i think its getting worse in terms of quality. =[ Thursday I gotta make the front sealed from the backside and get my battery charger repaired.. The damn thing quit on me right when I need it most.
So box is in officially, baffle is on officially, and when plugged into the wall it burrpppsss... I got alot of work to do still but just messing around a bit. Theres some 2x4's for a dash in there at the moment. Its pretty nasty looking in a bad way but things are coming along. The port is not tuned at all.. just there..
Thanks for looking.

having both sides of the port not straight vertical may be hurting your score

So you think I should turn it into a rectangle slot port? The car turns inwards and we figured make the bottom look like the top so it'll be uniform at least.
I havent tuned it at all yet so whatever the direction the gains are if it means making that port into a rectangle it'll happen like that. appriciate your comments =]
I kinda figured the same thing but its all experimental at this point. I did notice when someone was infront of the port it got so much louder so that tells me the port needs to be smaller. Still in the works.. got about 1000 more hours of tuning before it'll do anything worth mentioning on a forum like this where people are hitting 179 and stuff.. lol

I'm about to start putting the wire spaghetti in there.. and all this stuff for the batteries. Poor honda =[ More weight.. I built a dash too following termpro instructions. I remember it going something like "make it strong enough to hurt your hand when you hit it." i'll post pics later today or something.. I'll try and borrow someone else cam too.

This is going to be insane, Lots of work into this. One day i plan on going this extreme, when the money is right. So your strapping 2 modded 4400s per sub? Burping right?

lol well... i gotta install the ground bus bar and a non conductive holder for the positive.. the space is so freakin tight in the back. I'f I'd stop being a wimp I could have been done by now... gypsum, yes. its filler.. all it has to do is take up space between sheets of mdf.

Thank you for your interest Codia! Your support motivates me =] Everyones..
Everything will be covered in resin and a smooth thin piece of wood ontop of those 2x4's with a bunch of matting and resin in a poison sandwich. The bolts through the steel are gonna be covered as well.. and the spray foam blobs.

looks great, after covering with the resin you should gelcoat the cabin like i did so that i can look like a boat`s interior.

fyi the dash can be 16 inches max depth at the center of the windshield and cannot be taller than the bottom of the windshield and you need 13 inches of space for the passenger side between the console and the door

Yes. You just have to have a minimum of 6" at the center of the windshield before you start the roundover.
