Impreza Wagon install advice

Hi

I'm new to here. Hoping to get some good advice. My little Bro just bought his first car 2006 Impreza Wagon. Its been a while since I played with car sound systems. He wants good quality sound but no visible signs that a good system has been installed.(Except for HU) Amp and sub under seat door speakers. I am thinking of a Pioneer dvd head unit. I was thinking of using Focal Speakers but not sure. looking at spending around 3k.

Even installed, $3k is a heap to spend.

I'm doing the install Myself wiring is no problem. 1k for HU the rest for Amp and speakers. Quality sound is the goal. There's so many brands these days.

The front door speakers may require adaptors (pretty easy to make). But apart from that, the amount you're spending, you shouldn't have any issues with quality. Just remember to sound deaden and insulate the car.

But depending on your area of residence, I'd think twice about spending that much on audio lol. Just make sure you get very good (heavy) front speakers.

Can't really go wrong with Focal (I think the factory sub can be replaced with a Focal one with minimal mods, or maybe that's a Liberty thing).

Cheers for the reply I was going to dynamat  the doors and seal them. Should I do it anywhere else.

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
