ive come to the sad realization that I wont be able to do much more being limited to 1K for subs and even that is pushing it.

Ive got these two type xs im dying to try out but i cant justify giving them like 500 watts each.

Id love to have an HO alt but as Ive been told by one of the few HO alt companys is that it cant be done for the yaris...

why not? maybe not using the stock casing... but i'm sure you can do it... i know there's at least one company that makes HO alts for the yaris because a few people have paid for them.... I was randomly looking for alts... there was a few companies that made "1 size fits all" alts.... I wonder if any of those would work... one of them was fairly cheap... I wanna say $150, though it was only 100amps... so not a huge difference. 250watts isn't enought to justify that kind of money.


If you want to get louder, think about efficiency. Efficient sub (something with a high dB to w/m rating... and a flat BL curve so it remains efficient even when you give it 1000 watts. Then there is the big 3 upgrade. Then there is the design of the box you use.

Those three things right there can have an astronomical effect on how loud you get.


Do the big 3 upgrade like sqcomp did.... and I eventually plan on doing when i', not so lazy. I've got 17 feet of 4awg I can cut up for mine.
