Nice components! How is it driving the car with the whole pan section covered in sound deadening? Was it worth it?

thanks for the compliments, I think sound deadening the firewall between interior and engine, the rear 1/4 pannells and the doors was better then the pan itself wich is much thicker.

I'd say make a simple boc that has the right dimensions and experiment with it in the car until you find what you like most.
My sub had 2500 watts rms on it from an orion 2500D monoblock amp (the stock alternator couldn't keep up with it) and it sounded good and very very loud. I've moved on since then and now have 2 red hot turbo's where the sub used to be 🙂
