That is a nice looking engine. It's too bad that runner is dropped to the ground.

I dont like that enclosere at all. The air space is way to small and I'll bet it wouldnt sound that great. Another thing is if hes gonna go through all that money why leave that yellowtop just exposed like that. Im all about clean looking installs and im not to crazy about that one.

Not sure what those subs are, I just looked at the picture, first thing I thought of were darn it now I forget...I think those are Image Dynamics, the more I look the more I'm not sure, I can't place the plain white cones, but the surround looks very familiar. Anyway, small enclosure space doesn't mean crappy subs, elemental designs makes some serious freaking subs that are chillin' in less than a cubic foot, so don't hate on the small box speakers, man.

Bling Bling The engine is real clean andy shiny. Would have been more impressive if he had Supercharged 3.4 V6.

Those look like the Infinity Kappa's to me. If they are then they only need about 1.0 cubic ft of airspace for a 12 sub. I agree with dbikeman, that install is too busy and doesn't have that clean show look. Wonder what kind of seats those are though ...

look like infitiy kappa's, maybe eclipse, or alumapro.

Also, is sound domain the slowest loading site you have ever been to? close to a minute to load on my high speed connection is crap

Eclipse is what I was thinking before. That's what the surround reminded me of, but I couldn't remember if they had a white cone or a black one.

Breakerfalls,

You happen to have the dude's domain addy? then we can see what is his set-up, and I'd like to see more of his craziness.

There are a few pictures that he has uploaded to cardomains image hosting service that aren't displayed on his page. To get to those take this url:

http://images.cardomain.com/member_i...9/408223_1.jpg

Paste that into your browser. To see the next image he has, replace "1.jpg" with "2.jpg" or "3.jpg" and so on...
