Jeffchilcott----When I said the front and the rear  of the HU ,  I meant versus the Signal of the sub output.

Do you think I will need another kinetik battery? and what size?

Where can I test my SPLs before comp?

I'm on a mission to be as loud as i wanna be.

The diffrence between outputs will be none.....some decks have a stonger output on the sub output (voltage) so I would stick to the sub output on your deck
I am not entirely happy with kinetiks customer support right now so I have started using a new product
They are called audioforce batteries...you can find them at batteriesareus.com   Just as strong as any kinetik or powermaster battery but a better price and better customer support!
To test you setup before a show I would call some local shops that have held shows and ask if they have a term-lab or metering setup, most will gladly help you out or rent it to you at the shop for $20 a hour
Where are you located?   I could probably rfer you to some shops or competitors in your area

I must first say thank you for your assistance.

These batteries you stated , you would really put them up against kenitik  batteries!   /  I really want to try and beat this guy , he too c**ky.

I Live in deerfield beach FL, 33067 

One more thing Dynamat, where should i lay it down , or do i need it at all  ,because the trunk of the 02'  camry is kind of funny, when i drop the back seats, there is an oval shape that leads into the trunk.

I'm on a mission to be as loud as i wanna be.

The Batteries are actually made by the same manfacturer as that makes kinetik and odyesee batteries.    The prices and customer service beat kinetik hands down
I havent really played alot with sound deadning...I know we did the whole trunk in meghans car, and I really didnt notice any substantial gain or loss

Can you say "Smackdown?"
Some people should read what they're posting to or against before sticking their foot in their e-mouth!
It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

I am not a big ISACA fan...I have always been a USACi competitor and have been involved with a few DB Drag shows, but havent ran at any myslef.   The biggest thing I can say is find the fourm for which ever orgnazation you decide to compete in and look around.
USACi-Soundoff.org...left hand colum says fourm
DbDrag.com same left hand side says audio fourm
I will say best of luck, and hang on!   This thing we call competition is very very addictive
