READ THIS FIRST BEFORE YOU VOTE, for the 1 type X and alpine amp, is now for 2 type X 10s custom mounted by the tail lights with dynomat the hole car

 

sence no one has voted, now im thinkin of 2 type X 10s with 2 alpine pdx-1.1000s installed by the tail lights in the trunk, is that enough air space for them. custom box wise,

 

1 12 inch is plenty for an evo.

 

well i dont care about weight, i dont drag or track my car, so it doesnt matter to me, i like the 2 type X 10 idea

 

do you really need 2000 watts? If you do your gonna have to upgrade your speakers inside the car or else your not gonna be able to hear anything except for the subs.

 

yeah for sure, i am going with type R speakers, with an amp for those and i wasnt gonna turn them up all the way, by that no i dont mean im not gonna use them i just mean im not gonna push the full power of 2000 watts, maybe 1500 or a little less, i just dont wanna be disapointed, ive heard type Rs and there just not loud enough for me, and yes im going to tear my car apart and dynomat it, i just like loud as hell and to sound good

 

If you want something very loud, then the custom boxes back by the taillights are probably not ideal. The best for volume is usually facing straight towards the rear. In my experience (not in an evo) the closer to the rear bumper the better (farther away from the back seat). Just keep moving it back to the point that it's the loudest.

 

i think 2 type X 10s by the tail lights with be loud enough and if not then just turn those b!tches up. i dont mean loud in the car, theres no dout there, i mean outside

 

idk if the stock evo alternator can handle 1500 watts continuously for long periods of time. i would suggest doing big 3 upgrade.

 

I agree there is no way the evo alternator will handle it. Mine had a hard time keeping up with my RF power 500.1 running about 725 watts with a power cap. good luck

 

I am on the stock alternator running a PDX 1.1000 (rated at 1x1167 RMS) and a PDX 4.150 (rated at 4x170 RMS). I have no problems whatsoever....granted I am running a cap with this setup.

 

obviously the alpine will be louder.
will it sound better? not sure
the w7 is a wonderful sub.

 

dude a capacitor doesn't do crap just robs the alternator of more power all a cap does is when you have a system and have a high power surge from bass, like the brief hard hits, the capacitor let's loose some energy to compensate and help save the battery. very quick. then charges back up.

 

I understand what a cap does and that is is just a band aid....my point was the amount of power I'm running has been a non-issue with a stock alternator

 

ill get an alternator if i have to, cause im doing my stereo right, im not just gonna by some stuff at a stereo shop and have them jimmy rig it in there, i no i gotta get a batter for sure then prolly an alternator, so what alternator do i need for 2 pdx-1.1000s to push the subs, cause i have boxes picked out already.
