I peeped that, cuz I am considering either one 10W7 or two 8W7's in the rear deck myself. With my first build, I had two 12W7's in the trunk. Crazy, stupid bass...way too much. Now, I'm downgrading to either one 10 or two 8's like I said. How do you like the single, 10W7?

From my conversations with some audiophiles a few years ago the best way to run JLs are in a series a 3. 1,3,6, etc. For whatever reason. But I ran 3 15" W3s in my Explorer a few years back & it was ridiculous. It was right before the W7s debuted. I was told that one 13" W7 is equal to the 3 15s I was running. Like the OP said, one 10" W7 should be more than enough.

The Camaro is sick as s**t by the way.

Thanks! And the theory with 1,3,6 etc... is what I heard from a JL rep years ago, don't know the logic behind it but a single 10" is more than enough not matter what series it is.

Looks greats Greg! What I should have said is one 10" is more than enough in my little car!

Same here. It was never explained why, but a JL rep, Tweeter installer, & other audio shops said the same thing.

thats simply a marketing gimmick by JL...it makes no difference whatsoever for the output.

W7s are decent woofers for your average install. I think in a car like this they just so happen to look killer aswell. With that said there are FAR better SQ woofers out there than the W7, and when it comes to SPL (getting loud) the W7 is actually not much more than average.

3 w3 15s should absolutely demolish a single 13w7 if each were properly powered in proper enclosure. But ive heard JL say that aswell...just another marketing ploy. I recall when the w7 was first being released how it was marketed as the best woofer in the world...lol.:snapout:




Now without being a debbie downer......AMAZING CAR!

I actually spoke to an installer yesterday about the same thing. He has no JL affiliation. His explanation was that with the older W3s & below the series of 3 was actually a valid point. He said once the W6s, W7s, & newer models came out that was a moot point. I know that when it comes to SPL competition that JL is not at the top of the list. The W7 is just a loud a** woofer. It doesn't bring that exemplary clarity that SPL is known for. I believe that Focal offers much better clarity than JL. But JL is still a very good brand. I prefer it for what I like.

Thanks Jeff! I love the sound of that blower too! I will get some video this week for sure! And I will try to use a better camera this time! Those other video clips I had Flowmasters and now I have the borla xr1's -- I am interested to see how big a difference there is outside the car.

Got everything wrapped up last week, intake turned out great, finally got the catch can setup installed, the fuel regulator was an absolute eyesore on the firewall before got the moved down and out of sight and the fuel lines were routed correctly now -- hopefully the good weather comes soon!!

Thank you! The picture I have below is during the install, the regulator also has a removable shield that protects it from below which isn't installed in the picture.
The lines are all wrapped in DEI Fire Sleeve and are a little further away from where they were before (they had no heat shield on them before). I am allot happier with the way they are routed now, it was always a concern they way they were before

With the motor set back as far as it is, did you brace the motor in the rear, or did you just use the newly relocated engine stands?

Its just the relocated engine mounts with that a new crossmember had to be fabled up.

Thanks Wayne! Now the fuel system is being pulled hopefully for the last time! Changing my eliminator pump to the dual zl1's -- I want to be able to drive on long trips without any issues... also the other change is she's getting a Holley Dominator or the AEM Infinity ecu just trying to figure out which one!

I just installed a Dominator setup in mine and the self-learning aspect is a total win.. mixed with full time wideband 02 closed-loop as well as wicked eboost control (haven't fiddled with it much yet) makes me really strongly recommend the Holley!

Thanks Gents!

Ron you are right! a friend of the guy tuning was holding the camera and she moved over a bit when he jumped on it!

Ryan it was tuned by the guys over at Independent Speed -- the ECU does have a self tuning fuel table that simplifies the tuning and it learns the more you drive.

They have a bunch of turbo cars in there -- they have everything from a couple of 1000+rwhp Supra's to a wide body corvette -- a pretty wide range of vehicles in there for sure.

A little off subject, but I was curious why do you have blue tape covering your license plate? I see folks do that or blur their plates from time to time. I have posted pictures of mine and never bothered covering my license plate since everyone sees it when I am driving down the road anyway. Should I be concerned? Sorry, not trying to jack the thread. Just curious why.

Sick ride!

Thanks! Funny thing I have never covered my plate before for some reason when I was making the video someone suggested I cover my plate so I did(I did take the tape off before I hit the streets :) ) but really I don't see a reason to cover it either unless your driving like a maniac and you can see your plate; I would think the authorities might wanna have a chat about that.
