My shit box won't be an issue! ?[emoji23][emoji6]

I thought the same thing when I took my car to 1st repairer (did/specialised in mustangs and restorations) ended up doing such a botched job, all i can say is some who specialises in imports. Anyway if marc can vouch for em should be ok


Active Red would be more appropriate

Drivers side speaker box sorted.DSC_0250.JPGHey Dean. Was just wondering. Cadence amp does 2x100w @ 4 ohm. Or 2x150w @ 2ohm both in L+R stereo. Speakers are 200w rms. 2x10" dual voice coil 2 off. Should I hook them up at 2 ohm or 4 ohm?. Sealed boxes.

Ud wanna run them over powered wouldnt ya? If ur speakers are 200wrms ul need a amp of atleast 200wrms to power it properly.

So 2ohm at 150w? Not going Going to buy a new amp.

I do know what you mean though. Amps are mounted and rubber insulated got full size 16x205x55 spare in with false floor. Speakers are going left and right hand side of boot. DSC_0251.JPGDSC_0252.JPG

4 ohm will go all day. 2 ohm could hit thermal cut out if loud for long.

I'd start at 2 ohm and switch to 4 if it doesn't work well

What resistance are the subs?

4 ohm?

4 ohm single voice coil. 2 ohm dual voice Coil. Easy to change out. Might start at single 4ohm for less load on the amp at 100w If not happy change to double 2ohm 150w from the amp. Rockford fosgate prime r/2 10" shallow dual 4ohm subwoofer. Sealed boxes will put more load on the amp so maybe start at 4ohm then switch up to 2ohm. Only really crank rock and metal when the boy is in the car. I'm quite happy with the RB soundtrack except for cruising at 3000rpm at 120kph. Just weekend jobbing for fun really to play with my new nail/staple gun. Plus full size spare and L+R separation. [emoji4]

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
