Finally got my mids and highs where I want them to be sound wise. Just needed more power. Ordered more deadener, 50' of wire, 20 more copper lugs, shrink wrap, a 240amp alternator with an external voltage regulator and thats about it for now.

"Just needed more power"
Somehow I am not surprised!
I am getting ready for an install myself. Small stuff but big for me. Just need the wiring and get it going. Got an old school alpine amp, an old ppi amp, some separates for the doors, coaxials for the soundbar, and a small sub. Going for sq.
Any suggestions on wiring? Looking for some 4ga I guess for the amps. I remember you posting about some online site you like for wiring but I was lost when I got on there. What should I be looking for?

Got my alternator in today. Had to modify the bracket a little to accommodate the larger case.

Still need to clean up the wiring but I used to charge at 13.9 and drop to 10.8 full tilt. Now I'm charging at 15 and dropping to 14.94 full tilt at idle!

Little update if anyone is still watching this thread.
Ok with the pillars angled the way they are, they only stick out 2.75'' from the factory pillar so they aren't that made at all.

Sick build! Looking at those doors move on the low frequency buzz is crazy! You are moving tons of air.
