I'll won't be metering at Heat Wave either. Sold my stuff a few weeks ago. Imma go on a super low budget this next go round and try some 8 inch American Bass subs and that cheap lil Audio Pop and see how it sounds. Pretty sure i can piss off a few of the local hardcore streat beaters.

You don't need the processor mang. After my processor took a crap we did everything we could to lower the noise floor in the P-01 that the processor's death somehow caused. We still tuned the car...under Scott's advice the stage opened up and was a lot more airy and accurate.

Oooh! I've already started on re-tooling the pillars from 2011. I have pics too! I'll text you my progress so far...

I am so bummed about the part failure keeping you from the comp.....That really sucks.
I'm also real curious about the 1st car with twin turbos and the belt drive to the axle. What car was that?

"In signal theory, the noise floor is the measure of the signal created from the sum of all the noise sources and unwanted signals within a measurement system, where noise is defined as any signal other than the one being monitored."

That vehicle with the supercharger and turbos is a frame off Ford GT. it's also worth around 300k...

The equipment failure didn't stop me from competing...it did stop me from placing. That being said, it took Scott 5 tries at INAC to come home with a trophy. I'll be back next year for sure...and I'm working with a known industry installer to work my special idea for the woofers. That and I've already stared modding my pillars from the 2011 season after Scott mentioned that I should move them back up there ASAP.

Can you record that noise?
just curious

Very curious about special idea for woofers!

How are you going to install the L4SE's in a-pillars even more curious!

Man, you guys inspired me. I'm going PRO!


I just put some 15" subs in my A-pillars! I'm sure to win now!
Nobody has ever tried this before!

You could record the noise but its simply noise that is added after the original signal.

The subwoofers...It's probably going to make my yaris a true four seater versus two front seats and a bench in back...

...And I sent you the pics of my old pillars being modified...

Rebuild time!









The next pillar will be done tomorrow night. Then I take the night off on Saturday...Sunday is for sanding, and short hair. Monday is for finishing the pillars and readying for texture.

Awesome,

but mine will stay down in the kick area, physics tell me they belong there, I'm sure you and SB know some thing I don't know, of course I'm just an enthusiast and you guys are the Pros! Very interested how works for you, and all we know, this is the never ending story.

Lots of sanding to come.

Indeed! The never ending story!
