because no one ever talks about it...

i just ran in to my buddy kyle...we worked together at RF and him, myself and another friend took 7th in extreme 1-2 (unsponsored)...well some **** happend and he no longer works at RF but he told me hes back in the spl game and to check out his SCION xB on terpro.....wow is all i gotta say


two 12's (pioneer), 8 amps (pioneer) 173 DB

thats louder than we did with two 18's and 16 amps on the old mics. he also somehow used the wheels and tires off his old spl truck on the new one..dont ask me how....i still have to get all the details (none of which i will be sharing)
i cant wait to get over there and check out the box

here is the truck doing a 172.3




he works out of a shop here in AZ with the loudest truck in the US.

I've never been into SPL, just dont see the point of putting all that time and effort for just a few seconds of sound. I like SQL, but that Scion is still impressive.

Man looks like they are putting in 2 inch glass in bad biy and re-enforcing the whole thing.

hahhahaha so cute, people don't know an extreme vehcile when they see one

173 db is indeed an awesoem number, but they are still going to get their asses handed to them at finals. rumor has it, europeans are up to 180 now

Loudest i have ever seen in canada is 171, which was pretty good, but there are currently only 5 extreme vehicles active in canada... 3 civics, a bronco and an isuzu trooper... the 171 was the trooper

vehicle looks nice though, takes UBER money to build a car like that... I am guessing 4"-6" plexi windows? that stuff is made of money

any pics or details ont eh box? not counting on any box pics... I know how extreme guys are about that kinda thing

daamn that is impressive a friend of mine used to own a sound shop. he had a black mitsu mighty max with six 12's in a crawl through in his truck, 800 rms on each speaker and he put down 159.9, i couldnt imagine what that is like.

HAHA I was just emailing her a few weeks ago. She sent me a CD with a cool video of the Bronco. I wanted the clip where they broke the back window out.
I still see it around. I think JBL is the sponsor now.

I talked to her a few times, she's really nice. Thats was way back in my install days! I had a probe with 8 12"s groundzero's and four punch 800.2 and did whopping 152...

i cant wait for the europeans show up.i was at finals when they made their big splash in 02. Scott Owens is waiting with his pioneer F250 and kyle with his Scion (both outta the same shop)

no pics of the box....i will talk about the toyota pick up truck box from 2002 though...imagine 2 18s stacked on the passenger side using 1/2 inch aluminum, a 1/2 piece of 13 ply birch then another 1/2 inch of aluminum....it was only as wide as the 18's. the rest was port. we dropped the floor of the 2 inched to make them stack, and filled that 2 iches with concrete, then used 2x2 square steel to build the sides of supports of the box, screwed 3 /4" mdf to the box steel then welded on thin guage steel and filled the void with concrete, then did the same to the floor and the back wall (back wall was moved in and out to see what box volume would be loudest and ended up with 9"s of concrete. then used 1/2 inch u-beam steal and filled the U part with concrete. box was between 40 and 50 cubic feet with a port i could sit in (6'2" 225 pounds)


then 16 BD 1500's, 16 custom batteries, and two quad voice coil 18's....150 feet of 2/0, and 1/0 for all the batteries and amps...these were all connected to a 2x2x36 solid piece of copper. ya that was a fun 9 hours i spend drilling, counter sincing and tapping the 36 holes in each of the 2 pieces (power and ground)

the truck was made front wheel drive only to make room for the batteries under it, the rear was air bagged and the axel was strengthend to handle the weight (around 12k pounds) the fuel tank was taken out in favor of a 1 gallon race cell under the hood with the 3 300 amp alternators.

That is a monster sub!!!!

 
Rep Power: 337

they are in the wrong spot, but local extreeme cars in california have holes in the door to make room for the bolts that have been welded to the frame of the car. once the door is shut, the competitor can then chuck up three bolts into his coordless drill and literally bolts the door shut. Sometimes you can't rely on the stock latch to hold in certain amounts of pressure...

 
Rep Power: 786

another example of door bolts.... the newest creation of Mark and Mike Regnar of Team Riprock... they are the holders of the aforementioned 171

 
Rep Power: 338

the old truck had 3 door bolts that we used...the new scion however im not sure

i know scotts truck (the one with 13 subs doing 178's in USAC) uses air ram. so you push a button and 4 bolts on the inside of the door slide out to lock it into place..kyle could have the same type of setup as the scion was built in the same shop
