    Single Exhaust replacement

    Thanks everyone for the quick replies. I guess I should have been more specific with the reason why it's unrepairable. Where the flange is on the front side of the muffler, it's nothing more than a collaborration of rust. It appears as if there is a vent hole on the bottom front to let...

    Single Exhaust replacement

    Can anyone help me out here? My exhaust broke at the intermediate pipe right before the muffler and is not repairable. I am looking for a replacement catback that I can bolt in place, but all I am finding aftermarket-wise is dual systems. Ford wants $900 just for a new catback, and there's no...

    MarkVIII into V6 swap

    Because I have them at my disposal and it's a better platform IMO. I love my Cobra and frankly never want to go back to a OHV engine again.

    MarkVIII into V6 swap

    HEy guys, I need some help. Can't seem to find any information through the search and I looked for hours, so I'm making a thread. My old man has a scrapyard and I'm pulling some engine/trans combos out of some Mark VIIIs. I am thinking about swapping one into my 95 V6, but not quite sure how to...

    need some help for a FOX

    Yeah, phasing can be a pain sometimes. Occasionally it's necessary for a proper soundstage to run drivers out of phase. Glad to hear all is well now.

    Gotta have the BOOM

    I think it's just a stand. It's carpeted and that's far too much vent area for that enclosure.

    Installing Infinity Kappa 2-ways - ideas for xover mounting?

    I prefer an external mount. Under the seat is a viable option, or closest to the amp. Makes for a little hassle running more speaker wire, but I've never been a fan of mounting crossovers in the doors due to vibration and moisture.

    Gotta have the BOOM

    There is no one loudest or best of anything. Different drivers will react differently to different applications. Choose something wisely, in your budget, and work around it to suit your needs. You can spend gobs of money for the "best" equipment, but poor planning and execution of install...

    Current project log on the Stereo Integrity Cobra

    Car's in storagwe for the winter and it's too chilly to be glassing. Sorry. Trust me, once it starts moving again, you'll see PLENTY of progress photos.

    I'm not using any deck as a matter of fact. THe Omnifi will be the transport of choice directed to a preamp with a master volume control, and on from there for processing and amplification.

    I'm not running the Dub. You can check out my progress here. http://forums.stangnet.com/showthread.php?t=550960 I'm undertaking quite a large FG buildup myself. Personally, I'm not much of a basshead and I would go with a simple sealed enclosure around 1.5 cubes, but that's me. There's...

    I'm currently working on mine. DIY is the way to go. I happen to be lucky as I'm a rep for an online company, Stereo Integrity, so I got my sub for free. It's also nice as I come across some deals and info that are priviledged to many others. If you shop around, you can always find good...

    I ordered a set of 4ohm subs and received the 8ohm model, does it matter?

    Not the best. You can find better for the money, but that doesn't matter. If you're happy with it, that's what counts.

    I ordered a set of 4ohm subs and received the 8ohm model, does it matter?

    Not necessarily a bad thing. Your power output will be cut in half, but this may not matter. A doubling in power is equal to a 3dB increase. Now, many 8 ohm drivers are more "efficient" or sensitive than their 4 ohm counterparts. Compare the two, if you find the 8 ohm versons to have a...

    Subs and budget

    The internet can be both a blessing and a mess at the same time. For ease of shopping, it's best if you go around and do some listening yourself. Name brand, mass produced gear is not all bad and not all bling. Judging by your first post, you're just looking for something cheap and...

    94-98 Sub Help

    Good idea for simplicity, but I have yet to find a prefabe vented enclosure tuned less than 38Hz. Can you say peaky? Mackey, if you go with a vented enlcosure make sure you're amplifier of choice has a subsonic filter on it(correct term is infrasonic). This will protect the driver from...

    94-98 Sub Help

    A sealed enclosure is of course, the easiest to construct. It will yield excellent response throughout the driver's useable range. Sealed enclosures are generally smaller than their counterparts. A vented enclosure will yield extended response within it's passband and will GENERALLY be...

    Looks great! Nice and clean. Little too much chrome for me though.
