group1rs's black magic 2002 octy vrs

[Lloyd55vrs]

And a full bloody rewire

Poxy 8awg cable lol

Not for long

[mitsakosgt]

Good job Lloyd!!!!

 

I am now thinking to do mine the same way.....

 

I have my amps fitted to the left,side on a panel I made and I am thinking to make an other for the right side to fit my sub....Only problem is I have a 12in JBL and I dont know if there is enough room for it...... :notme:

[group1rs]

Lloyd has done his home work. And has calculated the best box size for an 8 inch which =

Obviously you can get a bigger speaker in. But if using a sealed enclosure you would need to encroach into the boot space more.

[Lloyd55vrs]

Its the driver side that you governed by, the 8w3 uses a diddy box compared to most

Loads of space pass side

U can get the height tho so depends how big the magnets is bud

[mitsakosgt]

As I saw JBL suggest a 28 liters sealed enclosure.....

 

How many liters is the one you made bud???

[Lloyd55vrs]

Iirc is 8.5l ( 0.3 ). Internal

They use diddy boxes the w3s

[Lloyd55vrs]

Ypur average 12 is usually around 1.25-1.; cubic feet :(

[mitsakosgt]

Yep JBL suggests VBOX = 1.00 ft.3 (28.32 liters)....

[Lloyd55vrs]

What about sealed ?

[mitsakosgt]

What about sealed ?

 

Thats for sealed box....Vented is VBOX = 1.75 ft.3 (49.55 liters)

[Lloyd55vrs]

The driverside the max width ud get is poss 9 as it steps in abit at the back

Maybe if u did a box that angled in abit ?

Height ud be able to go 18-20 poss

Depth ud get 10 maybe 11 at a guess

If could get say 19x10x11 thats 1.2 cubic feet ( od )

If u took the carpet of i remember think that would free up

Some space too

I think he's creating an audio setup ready for Pete but building it with his red Octy

Exactly Lloyd is kindly building my install in his car. Then when done I just drive down and put it all in mine. Then drive back next day after a good feed n water.

[Lloyd55vrs]

Yeah mate its mine , but my octy is just boot layout guinea pig

It makes more sense to build it in mine as can do it piece by piece, then its just a single trek from kent to brizzle for pete for fitting

And rewiring it seemd

[Paul thornton]

Makes sense. Thought you had sold it for a minute!

[Lloyd55vrs]

Makes sense. Thought you had sold it for a minute!

Ha ha nooo

Although pete does have first dibs when it goes up for sale so u never know

[group1rs]

Lloyd has indeed been busy on my boot install. I'm chuffed to bits with the progress so far.

[Dark_Hero]

Looks awesome, great work lloyd

[group1rs]

And here is the last tax disc that will be displayed in my octy. A shame really as at least you have something material for the fee. All be it a round piece of paper for the £145.75. And that's only 6 months worth.

[Lloyd55vrs]

Oh **** !!!

Its nit £145 for 6 months is it :(

Oh no....... check the classified for a red octy lmao

[Dark_Hero]

Cricket that's gone up a bit! Think I'll stick with the diesel as that would be a years worth

[group1rs]

More progress today. Subs are in and have been tested. I will let Lloyd let you know how they sound as I have no idea being 150 miles away.

[Lloyd55vrs]

Sound very cool imo matey

Nice precise and tight

They really dont sound like 8s

Glad u seem pleased tho matey

[group1rs]

Lloyd has been busy again this morning.

False boot floor installed. With unique cutouts allowing floor to be lifted past Subs
