I wil share the info on my newest note to self....when using a set of subs that have seen extensive use, do not put 3500 Watts to each one!
With that said. Meghan did 153.5 in the civic coupe today with (2) 2006 12" Kicker L5's and (2) Kicker ZX1500.1 amps on 17.8 volts....yes the amps were built by kicker specifically for this voltage....do not try it yourself!
I will however post some pictures of the aftermath tomorrow.....One sub pulled the spider all the way away from the basket, and burnt the bottom of the coil, and the other locked itself up.....lots of smoke and fun by all! haha

That was just us plaing around again....we started the year doing over a 153 in the civic coupe and we wanted to try to swing out a 154 at our last show before world finals. But a Change of events has made us decide that we are going to bring that car to world finals now. It should be interesting to say the least
