I have a pioneer enclosed and powered 8 inch sub. Will get pics later, but I am mounting about the same place as a stock sub along the inside of the passenger foot well. I don't usually have passengers and it really doesn't use up or affect the foot room on that side.


Pioneer TS-WX130DA Compact active subwoofer

Sounds similar to my setup, i blew my pioneer same model, have a kicker now. But i think i liked the pioneer more but didn't want to risk frying voice coils again.

thanks muchly. finally got to race it after a season of engine problems and it is running great. need a bit of time to tune the suspension to my hack driving style (and 6 year old tires) and it will be perfect (for a 50-year old car with lucas electrics and a tractor engine). fun driving a front-engine car after learning to track on a boxster; fact is, while mid-engine is 'perfectly balanced' and all that, a front-engined car is pretty darned predictable with less tendency to point the wrong way when you make a mistake. having fun, and got some alfas to catch up with now ...

thanks. some video from the last race (not much of my car, unfortunately - red #11). a few shots of a spyder (kit) 906 (kit) and a couple of early 911 race cars. felt good to pass the 911 in my triumph - does that make me a forum traitor?
