I think you're overthinking it. Speakers work with magnets and the point of the power delivered to the speaker is to drive the coiled wired to create a current and produce a magnetic field to work with and against the rest of the magnets in the driver. The larger the coil and heavier the magnets...

The af has a lower range of 250w vs the 150w of the Rockford I believe. The Rockford can comfortably go down to 50w in those low to mid sub ranges where the AF will have a bit of trouble (in theory). This is assuming stock amp, which is not exactly your plan/case. Sensitivity helps for sure but...

The audiofrog is good. It's minimum wattage is much higher than the Rockford so it's ceiling will be higher but low volumes and low range might suffer a bit on a stock amp, despite the much higher sensitivity. Since you're going with an aftermarket amp you should be good, but the desire to just...

Yeah, I've also Jerry rigged air compressors for the same purpose. Motive is just nice for portable track side use. Honestly the disconnect and fill only happens a couple times for typical bleeds unless you're full flushing... But I also bleed frequently for track use. My unit is from 2012...

Or just don't fill the motive with fluid and use it for pressure only. I've been doing that for 12 years with the same unit, hoses, everything without issue. Getting that highly caustic stuff into any flexible line is a poor idea. It eats everything.

I don't even have an amp on my sub. Just the factory lines to some high quality wire I had to finish. I did do fill, deadening the box, covering the box in closed cell, and all of my doors, hatch, rear wells, and under rear seats is 30% strategic deadening with 150-200% 4mm closed cell layers...

I feel in the last couple weeks my Rockford has finally fully softened up and "broken in". Even without an amp right now it's driving really well and has plenty of bass. Once I sorted the source more and tuned eq more I've been decently happy. Still not the best mids in the business and they can...

That takes too long 😅. I say just flash tune it and be done 🙃

Yes. 💯 If tsc is kicking in on the street you're either at reckless corner speeds or hamfisting it. Even on track the traction control does a good job... It just EATS rear pads as it tries to kill the oversteer on turn in, and drags the inside rear on throttle on with steering input. Most...

Best diy results I've seen are usually someone pulling the caliper, wire brushing them down, and then using header paint and header clear on them. Not the most durable paint, but it works well on the cheap. G2 is good for finish, but I've found you have to really move fast or just take the...

I just googled and it says 200F melt point. That's fairly low. Hope it works out for you! Color is a great match

Whats the temp range on that when cured?

Like the toy paint?

Yeah gas mileage in the its is so variable for me. I've never gotten above 26 consistently unless doing like 60mph with no wind. The problem is doing 70mph+ puts you in boost range so any resistance and it eats fuel. I get better mileage in an X7 🙃. I get significantly better mileage since I...

Since getting the borla exhaust and tuning (I actually had my tuner close the valve more in sport than stock, but fully open above a certain rpm and load) my individual settings are, Engine - sport (sport+ for track use) Steering - sport (comfort for track use) Suspension - comfort (sport or...

That makes a lot of sense! Keep at it and have fun out there!

You really believe 4 seconds? A good, high end coil is typically worth 1-2 seconds after a lot of time is spent tuning it in. Some of that time comes from alignment changes tophats allow. If you're 4 seconds faster, you've blown the need for coils out of the water. 4 is like jumping from a...

Good info, thank you. I'm also on travelers... I have 3 cars with windshields that need replacing. 😣 The Integra has the least miles (12k vs 45k and 80k) but has the most amount of pits and chips.

Counterpoint, an 86 with 5k in work will also do 1.5G+ and still revs to lunacy. It just won't be an eye watering figure when it doesn't leave its coolant all over the track, but I'd be willing to give that part up for the cheapo tires and brakes 🙃

The 996 is killer! There's a white gt3 in my area... Man it gives me whiplash when I spot it 😅. I agree the Integra "feels light" and does have a lightness about it, I just think it's heavier than it seems. But it does have power...
