Thumbs up 8W3 enclosure rails!
Somebody needs to snag that 8W3 set-up quick. I'll vouch for it and I would've bought it if I hadn't already purchased another sub. That enclosure looks and fits awesome and bumps hard and clean!

10-4 on letting Trav go nuts with the CF ... I'm already really impressed with all his work on my stuff.

10W3V3-2 will be mounted in that enclosure ... that's plenty for my music choices

i am sure that sub will do plenty... my 12w7 really is overkill. travis warned me and said a 10 would suffice but i am stubborn and went with the 12. definately more than i need, but i guess i shouldnt complain about that lol

He listens to gangsta rap.... and pretty much everything else. But now with the 12W7 he can fully recreate the sound of an SR-71 Blackbird taking off on a cold day in December.

If you have the right power and the right enclosure you can make a good subwoofer dance the way you want it to.

I know a guy with a Silverado SS that has a single 8" sub that will stomp out 10's and 12's all day. In a nice little box under the back seat. I forget his name..... hmmm.

A few pics of the Smokey enclosure installed. The first pic is just the paper rough draft. It looked good on paper. Looks even better in the car.

Pimpin' Indeed. The carbon fiber inserts are hot.

FYI... bids on that down fire enclosure are heating up. Shoot me a PM or email for more info on that puppy.

ALSO... the new slim-diggity is almost complete. I need a fresh trunk for test fit and photo shoot.

Awesome job Uncald4! I like the simplicity of a small sub enclosure like that. Its kinda funny, the guys on the caraudio forums really knock JL Audio and their equipment. Fact of the matter is they make some d@mn nice stuff! Their just jealous I guess. =)

I had one of these enclosures in my hands today. I have to admit - The build quality is incredible. So light yet very, very sturdy.

Travis, your enclosures are gold! Msala524 is gonna love you even more after today because I just tuned his amp to optimize the sub output. It sounds really nice!

You sure can do that. You'd have to rewire the navi system to another area. Click the link below, this is the only navi move I've seen

You are probably looking for this link. It has moved. Hope this helps http://www.jmlaudio.com/project%202005%20acura%20tl.htm

Well, I bought a 10" one from my buddy Dave...
Very impressive fitment...at first i had buyer's remorse but after test fitting it yesterday, it's gonna look very very clean and give me my entire trunk space back, which is awesome.
