I knew a guy who bought a pair of 12 inch L5's in a factory ported enclosure and those things were loud as crap. Even being ran off of a POS sony xplod 1000 amp. I'm guessing the cars have a lot of cabin gain. Maybe something to consider.

i disagree jack. i think the vw golf is a VERY loud car! the vw polo and the rabbits and the GTI i think are all great spl cars

ill have to disagree with u jack. golfs get loud. i am not the only person that has a golf and gets really high scores.
idk about what class he is running in but some times they have rules with CRXs..
my last car was an s/10 blazer
i put the same system and same box in my golf and gained close to 2 dbs... i know things like that happen. but i think golfs are the way to go.... but ya... crxs are louder than all hahaha

golfs get loud? what happen with you and yours then Lol

you did not know what you were doing with the blazer and that was shown with your trial and error with your golf

again if the sole purpose is going to be for an spl car i'd go with a different option. at least crxs and s10/s10blazers are cheap to repair if needed
