You will/may also need a ported box design, to buy or make the box, a new alternator, a stronger battery, a couple wiring kits, maybe a new head unit, and you will need to know how to install it all or have to dish up some more money for a professional install.
I may be missing something, I'm not sure.

It's hard to say numbers off hand, because there are too many factors that influence these numbers. Get a couple MT's if you want to go SERIOUSLY "I CAN'T HEAR YOU" kind of loud, or get a couple of SX's and you should be bangin

but like Colby said, you can't spend all that $1300 in subs/amps. You will also need a HO alternator to run that kind of gear

ive got a better plan. ive been trying to get some1 to do this for a long time. id do it myself if i was an SPL guy. get 2 audioque HD 15s. and one kicker kx2500 or orion 2500d. port them to 40hz. this setup should hit 150-155, and im sure somebody could even hit higher than that with it... although. remember its hard to guess numbers and install means almost everything. but audioque is a very serious subwoofer company.

try this sub. i bet it gets loud.

15" SI Mag D2






Quite simply the all-new SI Mag 15 is a bigger, badder, version of our 12" offering. If you desire deeper, harder hitting, more audacious bass than our 12", this is your subwoofer.

Providing most of the restoring force for the 15" assembly is a pair of eight inch diameter, progressive roll spiders. The spiders are mated to a black anodized aluminum former voice coil former with 20 gauge 2.4 inch tall aluminum windings. Such a large voice coil sounds heavy but in fact our coil is lighter than most 1" tall copper coils on 2.5 inch cores! The new cones we are using on the Mag 15 (the same as the 12) are a completely new proprietary blend of materials (mainly paper) which is dried and formed to yield a great stiffness-to-weight ratio.

A lot of companies just plop down larger moving assemblies with the same compliance spiders, surrounds, etc, on a motor and leave it. Here at SI, that doesn't cut it for us. We've kept the numbers in check by changing the suspension on our 15" compared to the 12" version. The suspension was changed to keep the numbers like Qes and Qts in check. The resulting attention to detail that has been paid to the 15" makes it suitable for sealed, vented, or IB alignments.

This driver was designed with both SPL and SQ in mind. It can blend extremely well, follow fast bass riff's, and drop down low with the best of them. At SI, we like to have our cake and eat it too. We like playing 8 Hz dinosaur stomps that shake steering columbs and entire vehicles and then going to another track with extremely tight kick drums.

More Information/pictures on the new Mag 15 are coming soon.

Recommended enclosures:

Sealed = 2.3 to 3 cubic feet.

Vented = 3.5 cubic feet tuned to 27 Hz.

The enclosure volumes above are after port and driver displacement.
15" driver displacement is 0.25 cubic feet.

Re: 3.5 Ohms
Fs: 22 Hz

Qes: 0.39
Qts: 0.359

Vas: 184.32 liters
Sd: 810 cm^2
BL: 18.1 TM
SPL: 88.86 dB (1W/1M)

15 Stereo Integrity Mag will get you some good numbers. I would get two of those, i believe they are 450$ a piece shipped.

More importantly though is the enclosure. You need to get a well built, well planned box. This will make or break your sub. Also tuning to your vehicle's peak is good too.

But two of those Mags in a ported enclosure, probably 28hz will get you what you need. i live about 20mins away from Stereo Integrity and know Nick and its crazy what these subs do.

Get a vr2000d and a crossfire XT15F single sub in a ported box atleast 4cu ft tuned to 36hz.

Ive heard it compared next to a W7 in the same box and amp and it is a good bit louder. Only disadvantage is the amp will run you around $800. you can find the sub for around $300 if you search around.

Two SXs will get your there and not kill your wallet. I'm pulling 145.6 on a TL with half power. Heard Two XXX 12s hit 148.8. It will still be a challenge getting those numbers considering the electrical upgrades needed

I used a Mag 12 D2 sealed in 1.7cu ft box and did 139db on the mic off 1200RMS and i think it was at 47hz. I changed the box to a 1.58cu ft box for daily usage and these things are crazy. Nick(owner of SI) has two 12s in his Teg off a Hifonics XX amp and plans to cblow away all local shops here. The SQ is like that of the Brahma and output is that of the XXX. Sorry SXs aren't even in the same class. Consider this, this one 12 in 1.75cu ft sealed sounded better and just as loud as a ED 16Ov.2 in a 2.2ct ft ported @28hz box. Is a complete SQL sub. And you can easily run 1000rms to it, i fed it 1300+rms at 65/80 on my volume and only reason i turned it down was clipping. I am now considering either doing two 12s or one 15. Just not sure how loud i want it.

Do what I did:
2 15" Eclipse Ti Pros each hooked to a DA7232 4,000 watt amp in 3.5cu/ft. boxes tuned to 32Hz :P. It's loud enough that I've yet to come close to full volume. I still need to get her on the TL though... But I'm pretty sure it's over 150db...
