Sorry, System specs are:
Pioneer AVIC-F700BT Navigation
Alpine Mrp-M650 Mono Amp
Kicker ZX-350.4 4 Channel Amp
Stinger 1.2 Farad Capcitor
Stinger Double Shielded Interconnects
Stinger Ground Loop Eliminators
PAC SWI-PS Steering wheel Controller
Alpine Type-R 6.5" components up front
Alpine Type-S 6.5" components in rear
Alpine Type-R 10" Subwoofer
I was more interested in the balance of the system instead of block busting bass, and being a student the really high end gear was out of the budget! This setup definitely achieves the goal i set out for, HUGE difference, very clean, tight, and still has PLENTY of bass to rattle your teeth! Over all the install was pretty straight forward. Placed the GPS antenna in the rear wing; hid the PAC unit behind the head unit, and ipod/USB cable in the glovebox. For a piece of mind i ditched the phillips mounting screws that came with the unit and ordered up some anti-tamper torx for the sides and rear. The rear of the headunit is secured to the subframe of the dash. Mounting the components took a bit of thinking as i did not want to have to go through the hassle of making custom mounting rings, so i managed reuse the shrounds from the factory speakers for both the mids and the highs.
Anyways some more pics:
