I'll be powering a Brahma 15 with an eD NINE.1 (approx. 1250wrms) in a Buick Century 4door. I will be porting the rear deck (take out 6x9's) and getting a HO alternator. Do you think that it is possible with proper tuning, and a box the size of my trunk (6+cuft) to hit 145db? I just want to know if this is an appropriate goal to set or if I can hit more or less.

With the right note you'll be able to hit it.Thats a big trunk and with the proper tuning you should have no problem. [Cool]

The piece of sweat-pants has worked great for me, and the hot glue has held it on there for almost a year now. I had 1kw on there for most of that time, changed to 700, then 450, then back up to 1.4kw today. The soft velcro should work too though!
