right now, I have about 2500 worth pf subs and amps goin in, next will be some premium floor mats, as the car only came with rubber winter mats, then door sill covers, windshield decal, then with maintenance, will be upgrading parts such as performance breaks when stockers wear down, new spark coils, wires plugs when the time comes, and possibly CAI. I would like to put on a ram air hood, and racing stripes, but I dont have the money. Just some minor upgrades. I need the car to last a while, so I dont want to put too much strain on the tranny. I also want to put on a cat-back exhaust and U-bend delete. It will be over time though, as I am only in High School...

Sounds like you got some plans for that car. I know how it is doing stuff to your car while your in High School, one part here and there. LOL, Isupped upa 92 S10in 9th and 10th and a97 Sierra that ran real low 14's in High School in 12th, and that was one part by one part and had a lot of aftermarket body parts on it. Save then buy, save then buy. It never stops, lol.

Right now, I have some competition grade subs and amps goin in. I hope to eventually raise enough money to get the entire system done, and make it a show\comp car. JBL\Crown BPX1100.1 Amp goin in, powered by 0\1 guage cable. Pumps out around 1300 watts from 1 to 4 ohms and can be run parallel and bridges with the same output. It will be powering 2 X JBL W10GTi MKII competition subs. RMS 600 watts, and a peak of a whopping 3000 watts. I hope to get the BPX2200.1 Amp and sell the one I currently have to give them more power, but it costs more that 2 X more than this one. I will post some pics of that in a second. The subs also feature Differential Drive Design, which creates magnetic breaking. When one voice coil moves up the cone, the other remains stationary. As it moves into the others magnetic gap, it is stopped, and forces in the opposite direction. This creates a tighter bass note, and allows for higher power handling. Very nice equipment, Im getting the 0\1 guage cable run on tuesday, and then I'll post pics of the install. Unfortunately I didnt have enough to get the larger amp I wanted, but the one I bought will suffice for a daily driver.

here is the equipment...

thanks space. I still have some work to do though. I have to sound deaden the interior, and the trunk, which means pulling out all the carpeting, etc. But I dont have the money right now, so it will have to rattle until I can... I also need a proper box built for the subs, one that has the correct cubic feet, and tuning for the subs. Unfortunately, finding someone reliable to do this, and a decent price is very difficult. Things will only get better. I will keep everyone updated with progress on my car. Any constructive criticism is welcome!

EDIT: this is how I want the install to look after I can gather the money, and get it done properly...
