BeatBox's New Project 98 Acura Integra

Real Good!
Sick voltmeter setup! i need to figure out what to do with my clock, it broke :D
is it, then def time to upgrade to the volt meter :)

1/0 on the big three is overkill for the integra. The only thing that "needs" to be 1/0 is the batteries ground. The integra's alt(~65amp) barely needs 4 gauge to be honest. I ran my batt ground to the stock location using 1/0, eliminating the stock batt ground in the process. Ran 4awg from the alt to the batt, and a ground from the engine to chassis using 4awg.

Granted, if you're planning on upgrading to an expensive ass alt down the road 1/0 from alt to batt, and engine to chassis could prove beneficial.

My car idles at 14.5 upon start up and settles to 14.4 when things warm up, unless ELD kicks in and my voltage drops to 12.5v(lol honda)........
over kill NO SUCH THING lol
yeah not gonna be running a baby alt for long, im getting a custom one made just a matter of time. Im sure the 300amp alt is gonna need more than just 4g to charge my batteries up :thumbs up Im prob gonna run two 0g power wires from the alt straight to the rear batteries
with lights on heater on deck on the voltage doesnt move 14.2-14.3

How much of a difference can you tell with the new setup?
Dont really notice a different "yet" its more of an audio upgrade, the biggest change will be with the bigger wire from the battery to the alt witch will charge your battery up quicker when you have system.
For mine Im gonna be running atleast two more batteries in the spare tire part, im just gonna run my power wire straight from the alternator and skip the front battery

Was gonna put in a small system today but my box doesnt fit, so im making another one. gotta have one of my boys design it so it fits behind the seats, subs up port up tuned to 32hz. Pissed me off i had everything apart to run the wires and box didnt fit FMFL

So since the box i had before didnt fit im having EclipseChris (from the SMD forum) make me a design for another one :clapping:

This is what i had in mind but we'll see what he comes up with. It's gonna be tuned to 32hz(sorry for the shtty art skills, just to give an idea :pardon: Subs up, port along the bottom two different chambers )

some ive had for a while back up subs i call them , they sounds pretty good for being what they are. i had them in the jimmy and it would flex the flip out back and forth lol

2-12in Diamond D3 subs


On a Digital Design's CM1 (FOR SALE, i have two) 1krms at 1ohm should be more than enough

Oh on the way to work saw this on my side mirrors (dont have a rear view mirror)



I was running late for work so was going a little fast down the bridge 58 in a 30 :(
I took the back way to work where there's usually only semi's and no cars
Cop was actually pretty cool and gave me a "turn signal violation" ticket and told me to slow down :)

EDIT: he didnt mention anything about the dark tint FTW
