    It sounds like this debate has been going on for a while. A lot of the mustang forums have the same debate. I just had the same question for my 98 gt. I bought my 98 GT last fall, when i checked the oil it was barely touching the dipstick. So I added a 1/2 quart to be safe. Then I went to...

    Need more bass... new speakers or add a sub?

    If your Alpine has Subwoofer RCA outputs, you are golden. I would run an extra amp and subwoofer. One good 12 will do the job. With a seperate sub rca output, you can raise or lower the subwoofer output depending on top up or down. Raising or lowering wont affect the other speakers. just the sub.
