I have, in 01 Pewter Ws6's car. Using a custom subthump box.

Dont those need a lot of airspace? Where did you find the extra space?

That one is a 10w7 I believe. Running in about .92 cu.ft. which still works very well.

[Ian]

that looks great, exactly what i was expecting. and you said it was using a custom Subthump box? do you have a link for the box you used?

hows it sound? are you using both kicker amps to power it?

[slow]

using a kicker 1200.1 to power it... other 800.4 is for the mids/highs

Recommended is 1.25, so I guess that is pretty close.

did you port it or not? for the W7 that is....

[slow]

no, it is running sealed.

cool, i think thats the route i want to take. I like my trunk space in the back for trips back and forth to college. but i was a good amount of bass too. W7 in the side seems to be the best bet for me.

Thanks guys.

just for your information.

t-tops will hit the foam suround of the W7 in the stealth box.

a 1/2" piece of weatherstripping to put the top on a angle, seems to work good, along with grinding the t-top holder on the passenger side so it can slide over.

[Ian]

i dont have t-tops, but thanks.
