Hey just wondering if any1 had heard of MB Quart speakers and whether or not they are any good? Just put a deposit on some DSE-216 6 1/2 splits without really thinking about it!!! I usually restrict myself to the more well know makes and have kinda stepped out of the circle on this one! Any feedback will b much appreciated!!! Happy lining!! (i mean SKY-lining!!!)

Did you listen to them?

If you liked em then you should be happy regardless.

A few years ago they really were a real presence on the market but they seemed to be overwhelmed once the focal hype hit the streets. They are a good speaker though, I am not familiar with the models anymore.

I go the 5 1/4 inch discus series in my car, and MY GOD! I love them hey, I want to hug them every nite almost, they are so damn clear!

I really need the 6 1/2s for the music I listen to, so enjoy them. (ps, wanta swap for the smaller speaker :rant: )

hahaha yeah i'll swap em for a frount mount!!!! sweet...i'm stoked that someone is happy with em!!! got the 6 1/2 components for 329 from a place called stylin audio in melbourne.....went there to buy an immobiliser and thats all....i took only money for the immobiliser coz i knew if i took my cards i would end up buying stuff that i can't really afford!!! immobilizer ended up being 50 bucks less than i thought so i put 50 deposit on the quarts.......always happens!!!

What range are they? When I got mine they had the top of the line 6 1/2s for cost price ($500 or something) if I had the extra $300 I would have got them. Id say thats a good buy. (espcially when my mate got a quote for $700 for some alpine things). Just the one tip Id have. Mount the tweeters lower rather than higher, I find them a little harsh at times.

Yeah I'm gonna get them to install em...pretty much can't be stuffed, and they installed my immobilizer.........oh yeah thats what i was writing........just had a massive blue with my ex over money she owes me anyway.........yeah they did a great job with the immobilizer so il get em to do the speakers too

range??? im not sure, i was going to get the tweets mounted on the a-piller but i actually also just read that thats probably not a good idea so awesome thanks for the advice il get em mounted down low....what r u running in the rear daveo?

    • A few suggestions: Do you have the option of retarding your exhaust cam gear to bring the power band over to the left? VCT would be turned off after you make peak torque, you see the power/torque will decay faster with it left on all the way to the limiter Once VCT is turned off, you'll find the motor will take a bit more timing being ramped in Send its mum, more boost! Of course, depends on your exhaust pressure.

    • I was back on the dyno again yesterday after completely revamping my methanol injection system. I was making 440kw at 19psi. Great, this is more then I was making last summer with my old meth system at that pressure, and I figured it would be smooth sailing up to 30+psi. We continued increasing from there and by 25psi, I had only hit 455kw. Dyno sadly lost utility power at this point and I left. We seemed to be on course to hit the same power wall as last summer (477kw@27psi). This is a built RB25 S1 stroked to a 2.8. Built and ported head with Kelford 272/262 cams. Precision 6466 Turbo. Tuner last year believed the power wall is a mix of RPM limitations (Hydro lifters/Limit set at 7600RPM) and fueling. With my new meth system, we're seeing zero knock now but it still won't go up.  What else can I do at this point? Here's my train of thought.  - It's clear from the dyno graph that I would easily make power to 8500+RPM but I'm limited to 7600RPM. I could risk increasing my limiter, but hydro lifters have me worried. What are my options here besides going NEO head or solid lifter conversion? I'm rocking a 1.05AR turbine on my 6466. Would dropping down to a .84 help shift that power down in anyway? - We're only seeing roughly a 30kw difference at the top end with VCT on or off. Is this normal? I want to confirm VCT is working properly. - Should I look into other cam options?  - Should I just keep increasing boost and see if she wakes up later on? I would expect to hit 600rwkw around 35psi with my 6466.   
    • First thought is to use a ram mount (to hold the ipad) + windscreen suction mount. The arms on the ram mount can be as long as you like, should be able to position the ipad pretty well with that setup.
