*Plus my gay ass PART-TIME job where I get 40 HOURS a week! I have no time to even work on my car whatsoever...
HAHA try bein 18 (well almost- less then 2 weeks), saving to pay for college this fall, and having a job where i get less then 20 hours a week, at $6.50/hr, and drive anywhere between 350-500 miles a week, so gas adds up, and then pay for audio equipment. I had to save A LONG time to get what ive got, now im just spending time on making it louder and louder
Yes, but look at your score and look at mine. You're nearly twice as loud as I am .

I disagree gene,it does has something to do with that neon,mike etc has made that box design strictly to make a neon loud.if it has nothing to do with the car why hide it?/keep it a secret?every design has been done over and over with a crx.if mike had a crx I think it would be way more difficult to hit 151.5 with 2 2000 model d2's in a crx,I know becuase I tried it, 150.1 with 2 phd2's in my crx is all I could muster,but thats me..

Exactly what do you mean by this? Sure, I could do something illegal, but I don't take it to that step...
PS - Being 18 wasn't the only I stated . Oh yea, and where's your system?
George is plenty loud. I believe he is just waiting for a multi-point show to get his certified score!

So SOME of you people are saying that an 18 year old with a job making $7.00/hr has the same advantage as a guy in his late 20's making $100,000+/year, riiiiiiiiigggghhhhhhhtttt...
