What subs are you using?

The best way to mount them would be facing back, towards the bootlid and tail lights. Why? It's called bass loading. You see, Bass waves are long, and get slightly louder after travelling a short distance. Face them back, and i assure you that you will get alot of bass in your cabin. Removing the seats won't really make it louder. People seem to think subwoofers work like normal speakers, and that the speaker is the thing making all the noise and if you face it straight into the cabin it's going to be louder. Not the case. A subwoofer generates the frequency waves, however the box is what makes all the noise. This is why when you just sit a subwoofer on the floor with no box, it will jump around and vibrate, but you wont hear much.

So,

Mount your subs facing the bootlid/tail lights, and you should be pretty happy with the SPL.

      The spray cans were in the "Kiln" room whilst I was preping the parts,  so probably around 2 hours to get them warmed up, the kiln room has 3 small ovens running at 100°c, 3 medium sized ovens running 100°c, and the large one I used running at 80°c, the room itself was about 28°c, I also spent a bit of time taping up the parts in the room as well, and by the time I was done I would assume that the parts were around that 28°c As for power, I expect a couple of Killerwasps up high would be achievable with the current mods, I'm still running the MZR 2.0 intake and throttle body, and there is a slight mismatch with the 2.0 intake (smaller) and 2.5 intake ports (larger) on the head, this intake is matched and specifically designed to fix this issue with the ports mismatch, the throttle body is also a couple of mm larger, OEM is 65mm, the Bosch is 68mm In the end it will look "prettier" than the molded plastic thing that is the OEM MZR 2.0 intake As for the LSD, it's the OEM Torsen which works fine for what I use the car for, plus, basically no maintenance apart from the occasional oil change

      Mate , I have the same issue right now with the exhaust noise , if you can tell me what your local guy did , I'll talk to my guys and see if they can do the same. Power is good but it just too loud when put it down.

      The other trick I've found with wrinkle black is to put the can in hot water for a bit to warm the paint up, and to pre-heat whatever you're painting. It'll be interesting to see if you pick up any power with the intake, following with interest. Got a proper lsd for this?
