Well, let's see.. I am TechSys form termpro, realm of excursion and a few other places. I compete, off and on, in dB drag racing.
I have been into car stereo for as long as I can remember (which is pretty short right now, I think old timer's is setting in). I run a part time shop, actually a home based business, called Tech Systems (hence my nick). Also work as a Maintenance Tech for a local drug rehab, which I've been doing for 5+ years.

Let's see, anything else.. Not really. I have the same kind of car as Ryan (a beretta). Soon to be installing 4 IA lethal injection subs in wall running on a couple or 4 of ED nine.1 amps. that really depends on the mood that I'm in at the time I do the install. I may just run 2 of amps for now.


I think that's it. Any questions, please ask. No, I do not have pics of my car right now, unless you want to see a stripped down p.o.s.. I do have a couple of vids on R.O.E., will post links if needed.

Welcome aboard!

You will find Scarell here also. Hes friends with the owner of ROE.

Justin from Detroit is a dealer for IA.

I will note this forum is not a fan of eD... lol

I wanted to put 6 12"s in my beretta but Im kinda being forced into selling it...

I think I read that you were having to sell it. That's too bad. As far as putting 6 12s in it, that shouldn't be too much of a problem. Take a look at highvoltage's cavalier that he as building. 6 15s in there. If it can be done in a cavy, it can be done in a retta.
Not gonna get into the eD thing. I haven't paid attention to thier amps lately. I'm actually still doing research for what I want. It's gonna be a tough year in Street Max 3-4, so hopefully I'll make the right decision for the amps.
I'm also going to do a little bit of playing in bass race.

O.k. let me see if I can find them
Dancing 2 liter coca-cola bottle. This was a 60hz tone with 2 autotek SS-1244 subs in a 4ft^3 ported enclosure. The subs were on a Hifonics BX-1500D amp @ 1ohm.
DUB 1200. this was just a test to see if the DUB 1200 would do as good as the SS-1244 subs did. It really suprised me, to tell the truth. Just is what I wanted, but hell it was a tax write-off (along with the next vid)
2 DUB 1200. This was 2 dub 1200 subs, on a (I am embarassed about this) Boss RT-545 amp. Why did I go with that amp? My hifonics burned up on the output. The trunk of the car got far too hot for anything to run stable.
That's the vids. I am running a very cheap system right now. Still have the DUBs in there, and put them on a PD-2000. I've done a realtime, in car test of the amp and it's putting out 612watts @4ohm. Doesn't sound half bad, but doesn't sound half good either.
I've done 135.8dB with 1 12" sub (p.o.s. MSX audio PROmax dvc 2ohm) in a 5ft^3 enclosure ported. Can't remember what it was tuned to. I ran that in street max 1-2 last year. My whole goal was not to win, but to blow the crap out of the sub. It didn't blow until after the show and I was on the way home.
I'm expecting more with the IA LI subs, a lot more. Not sure though since it seems to be a pita to get high scores in a beretta.
Oh, I do have pics of the car, somewhat.

Don't be too harsh on me :)

You kidding me?

Berettas always sound loud.

The two Ive run for a long time both had systems, both were amazing sounding.

Thats why I seeked out a retta for my project car.

Time and money short now though, so its gotta go.

If you want box help Im here. We got a full crew here that will help you win!

But ya, you need some different equipment if you want to win!

I Must Have Those Seats!

Why would you want those seats? They are for a base beretta. Only reasons they are on there is 1) pretty much free, and 2) can't find any good black z26 seats.
As far as box building, pretty much got that taken care of... BBP6 and winISD. the IA subs are going to be 1 pair each in a 5ft^3 ported enclosure. Two enclosures. 24.75h x 19w x 24d, port 3.5" wide 13" long. It's pretty much a copy of somebody else's setup ina newer cavalier. Here is a pic of what it's sort of gonna look like (this pic is in the cavalier). Some of you may even recognize this setup.
