I just got my system metered ( 2 audiobahn flame compression 12's , 1 hifonics wired at 2ohm for 1000 watt) I hit 138.8 in the floorboard , and 150.2 in the port. In about a month I'll be adding another hifonics amp , running both at 1 ohm for 3000 together. My subs are tuned at 35 hz. I dont know if this is good , decent or bad , so please let me know , Thanks Guys!

The 150.2 in the port was with 500 watts at 35hz (the subs are seperated).

138.8 isn't bad.
if you want more SPL and aren't worried about SQ, switch to a bandpass box and tune it to the resonant frequency of the car's cabin.. probably around 70Hz.
It'll sound lousy but it'll be louder.

Its 3.5 cf per chamber , in a 1989 Ford full size Bronco . The ports are tuned to 35hz. I hit 137.6 in the floor , 138.8 on the windshield , 150.2 in port.

I peaked at 37hz with their cd , I peaked at 35hz with my cd. I think my cd peaked different because it was burnt and when you burn cds it has to compress it.
