Wow, that setup must move some air, how does it sound?

"Here it is. The passenger seat isn't comfortable for anyone 5'11" or over so I'm opting for the Focal 8" Sub in a different enclosure now."

I would not want to be the passenger, in one of these modded subwoofer cars, in the event of an accident! Talk about potential for serious leg & foot injuries.

In our litigious USA, just think of the lawsuit a passenger could file against the driver.

For 5" Subs, the Focal were surprisingly powerful! I was only looking for SQ but they can also bump pretty hard. I also own a pair of Focal 5ws and the 13ws hits deeper, more defined bass. I only have them at medium-low settings and they still sound great with the top down; most importantly the subs are powerful enough if when someone is trying to show off their system and bumping their 2 12"s beside my car, I am still able to hear my music clearly.

The MDF enclosure is bolted on the footwell, and the subs + enclosure only weigh 8lbs, so there's no need to worry about injuries regarding the box.
