Thanks. It was Janix's stereo system design that motivated me :).

Zerochief,

Nice job, by the way I finally got the X pipe put on and WOW. I Picked up noticed a increase in HP and Torque! Thanks for the suggestion.

PS. Still want to get together the next time I'm in the Bay Area, would love to check out the new mods to the sound system!

OK great BF! :thumbup: I want to check out that 4.6is Dinan S3 you have :zoom: Let me know next time your down around the bay area :cool:

Zerochief, any luck with the dimensions of this beauty? I have a mod bug and this is next on my list - especially now it is warm enough to have the windows down in the northeast. Thanks.

Guys, I have a question... What if I installed the sub on the external cover without making the enclosure? Would it sound bad?

Good Question :iagree:

Have U gotten UR X5 back from the shop yet ????
any luck sharing the dimensions of UR custom sub box with fellow members we R all waiting ?

Make sure you spec a sub that does NOT require back pressure like this one:

TSSW841D PIONEER 20CM SHALLOW
SUB 500W WATTS MAX
20cm (8") diameter shallow subwoofer for enclosure of "free-air" use
Power handling of 500 watts ensures great bass from very little space
Unique "Air-Suspension" design uses two cones to reduce overall depth
to only 75mm without compromising performance

OK members I finally have my X back but have not had time to pull the box out.

Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...... :cheer:we can't wait......

This is what I did with my second attempt at adding a sub (current setup), however I used a regular sub, not like what ZC recommended. I Dynamatted the entire "cavity" behind the door. Sounded good for a little while but now it is starting to rattle - not sure if it is the sub or that I have finally worked things loose.
