SND, Same with me. I just upgraded from the JL W1 that comes in the Stealth Box to an Image Dynamics iDQ 10" and put 600 watts to it. Wow does that speaker shake. I can't even fathom two 15's. Talk about SPL instead of SQ, lol!!!

Yeah around here that would definitely be all the makings of an unnecessary noise violation just waiting to happen.

JAyala54, did you do the components as well?

Haha, oh she definitely knocks the wind out of you.. but no, I still have the oem head unit in it.. really no need for another one but maybe later on.

& as for a noise violation.. here in florida you can turn your bass up as loud as youd like (:

Might not help at all, but did you try to point the speakers upward?

I have dsp & ended up just getting an rca adapter. Hooked wires to the + & - sub wires in the back so that way I didnt have to mess with any wiring at the front of the car. Then I went from there & did everything normally.

If the gas door rattles, I wonder if there are other things deeper in the car coming apart as you drive?

Lol, Im sure of that bro. My subs hit hard but I have them turned down right. I only put them up when the time for it comes. (i.e.someone driving next to me thinks they have nice bass lol)

the fuel flap/door locks on double locking and does not lock on single locking. there are many posts on double/single lock...

my main bass usually comes from the exhaust tips... nothing as powerful as what you got, though...
