    This talk of how these guys deal on the web makes me want to hire a web person. Maybe I can find a bookeeper who wants to sell on the web too.

    I swear I am gonna make a prefab E30 box that actually fits, and fires completely through the ski hole. A Basslink or even a decent 8" would be plenty of bass if it fired through the ski hole.

    I just finished an install on a 2003 Infinity G35. 2 12" Image Dynamics "ID" in 2.35 cu. ft. sealed. That car also has a passthrough, but the back seat does not have a solid wall like our E30's.

    I fired the bass through the hole, 100% sealed into the cabin. The car had a box before, firing backward, like most guys do.

    We probably got 15db more bass...just a HUGE difference.

    BTW, Image Dynamics "ID" series are RICE! Big ass plastic cap on the back, with faggy-ass allen screws? RICE....they do nothing except look cute.

    Fucking great, a body kit on a woofer. Cheap ass made in China woofer. Fuck that. Give me Memphis M1's over that rice anyday. The allens on the back of that allow you to take your woofer apart and change the voicecoil!

      I really need to try this ported application you are raving about. Right now I have two 12s (for distortion headroom) and fire them rearward into a loading panel which reflects behind the woofers through the skihole and the rear speaker vents. I get a lot of bass and my trunk is dampened with a Dynamat Xtreme trunk kit (got it for 50 bucks :) ) so it pretty much stays inside the car unless I crank it, but I'm still interested to see how it would turn out. I'd assume I have to make two slabs of MDF that enclose the woofers from the trunk and seal the output into the skihole, right? Maybe over the summer I'll throw it together.
      I retired my E30 for now...
