The thing you have to remember is that heavy stereo equipment like the sub and boxes need to be secured to the car well. Not just for fast cornering where they can slide around an smash things but in an accident they are like flying cannon *****. What good are airbags stopping you from getting injured from the front when you get crushed from the rear.

Don't just lay them in under their own weight so you can take them out fast at the track.

How did you do an Autostart system? I've always heard you need a key because of how our ignition works?

Well yes, i was talking about putting a remote start in my galant, but i put one in my evo last winter...

yes, for the evo, you need to have another key, it has an immobilizer that your car recognizes each time you stick the key in your ignition. if someone were to try and make a copy of your key, and it was just a plain silver copy it would not start your car.

there is a part that you install with your remote start. DEI 556uw, it is a black box that your key gets installed into that has its own wiring that attatches to the remote start system, as well as a ring that you place around they key cylinder, under the steering column...
