He told me it was punchier than the Tempest, but the Tempest sounded louder.

installed and ready to slam.

top view of em both.. aside from the tinsel leads breaking the foam ring thing around the Tempest is falling apart..yay

the Type R is considerably larger.. but the Tempest was a forced to be reckon with.. it will be a sad day when i let her go

, but theres always room for more subs :excited:

anyway the Type R is a good sub so far.. but it doesnt seem as loud, but i guess my ears are used to it or something.. i dont know.. but the whole F'n car rattles real bad, and its super annoying, so you hear alot of ratteling instead of clear bass.... and i dont feel like spending the money on the sound deadening.. it would be ok if i wasnt looking to buy a extended cab truck, then id buy a 100+sqft. i dunno, ill figure it all out when the time comes..

psh, 100sq ft my ass... i've got like 14 sq ft of deadener mat (damplifier & dynamat extreme) and some sludge on my trunk lid.

I have 120 sq feet installed, and need about another 60 to finish. Thats not counting the box and a half of foam.

no, adire tried to wax it before they sent it out to him, but he kept bothering them so they had to send it out before they could finish buffing

heh...my theory is that seeing as they have relocated to south america, clearly they are involved in the cocaine business. speakers are just a cover up.
