Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior how many watts is too much?

what do you guys/gals have in the trunk?? do you think 2 12" w/an 800watt amp is too much? right now i have a new box w/ 2 mtx thunder 8000's (1000w) w/my old 200 w/ amp and it is fkn loud... my friend is tellin me that a 800w amp would sound even better...

800 watts yah sure it should be fine

you can never have too much power ... .. but yeah 800 should be good.

just to little thats all

stock power...lots more power next summer.

800 is good

i personaly am working off 2x JL10w3 at 500watts

... you can basically put as much as you'd like to have in your car - this is why they sell high voltage caps and custom batteries... it's the same reason you may see 1200watt AMPs and people who put several of these into their vehicles at one time...

Those are some good looking setups.

those systems look sick! Wish I had the fundage to do something like that. Real nice

how much does an enclosure like this one cost? (estimate)

holy shit...that's exactly what i'm doing, except the sub part is a bit higher


oh and the fiberglassing could cost like 1500

thanx man. i like that setup because it leaves room for the back seats and does not compromise the looks. be sure to post pics when ur done

yea it might be a few weeks till mines done because I have sooo much to do with the system, hell I don't even know what subs to go with

the ones i want are the first ones

those are 18 inch 5,000 watt speakers...*drools*

if I had two of those ...wow...can you say "plexiglass windows" ??

800 watts should do fine for you with those subs. I'm running 2 JL 12W3's with a 1x500 JL amplifier (Also, have 400w for the mb quart components).
