Depends on the version of the SI Mag too though, cause the different versions are quite a bit different I've heard. What do you think of your Mag krazy?

Yeah I have the older version of the mag. I think between the DIY and the SI I'd take the diy one because not only is it almost half the cost it alsorequires a smaller enclosure. Don't look to get loud with either of them though...

for the average person it should get loud...esp in a truck
Be sure to add in some deadener in at least your trunk and door's. Secondskin Audio has some nice stuff, damplifier pro. They actually just released a lighter version for tighter budgets as well. Easy to work with and they come in sheets instead of rolls. I hate rolls because you have to flatten them out.
secondskin is expensive as hell
Raamat BXT FTW
will they do it for free?
2k i'd get
morel tempo 6

krazy or snake could recommend an amp that'll do 500@ 1 ohm..my mind is kinda blank right now in that department
1 roll of raamat bxt( i would put as much as i can on the doors) use the rest wherever else u see fit
http://www.raamaudio.com/cgi-bin/index.cgi?p=pr
this came out to 1286. if u buy used or shop around you can probably get that all for around 1k
you could use the rest on more deadening, big 3, battery, install, etc etc

Yeah do your trunk lid/trunk. Doors. Depending on how far you wanna go with it you can do your floor bed too but that would take some work.

for the amp, I'd just search diymobileaudio.com forums. I'm sure you can find something used for 200ish that puts out 600-800 @ 1 ohms. It'salright to have more power than you need on tap. Just keep your gains down.

I used to love my JL 12w7 1000/1 setup. That sub hit so clean it was scary. Heard a lot of people that had systems that sounded like sledgehammers, not mything. I want something to push bass but also not sound sloppy. I didn't mind spending quite a bit of money. Always got compliments for how clean itsounded. That plus I had JLs xr series components and a 300/4 pushing them. I need to find something small but with decent bass for my e46 coupe.

I like nice simple quality system at a resonable price. So I am a JL Audio man all the way.
