hmmm im around 142 with a single 12 and 25 mpg in the city in a bmw 3 series.
dbs should go up very soon as im upgrading to an 18, and mpgs will probably drop since new box will be like 70 lbs heavier than current box with sub in it

haha i believe that, i bought the biggest optima i could a while ago and i swear it weighs like 60 lbs.
it was funny the first advance auto i went to, the dude told me it wouldn't be compatable with my car.. i was like dude i have a bmw.. my regular battery is in the trunk, i dont need to worry about group size, and besides the battery was just to add a second battery for the car stereo.
dumb people in this world, he lost a sale just because he was too dumb for me to want to deal with.

Honestly couldn't tell you. It's a 5.0 in a lincoln not to shabby. I dont worry about mpg it rides like your on air. Stock audio momentarily.

2000 chrysler 300m, 255/35R20s . 18-19 mpg with full system, 22 w/o subs and extra battery bank. 144.9 db on music, sealed up, mic at the dash, aka legal, ac spl 190 mic.

that was with my pair of 12" alphas and 1 3k at .5 ohm nom, the btl is prob around 142 on one 3k a 1ohm nom, havent been metered yet tho and i just strapped another 3k to it, looking to get 4k strapped at 4 ohms nom which might make it comparable to the alphas.

12 mpg city!!/15 mpg hwy in an all-wheel drive Land Cruiser.

Haven't metered.
Educated guess- would be a bit louder than 135 decibels with 1300wrms into 1 FiQ15 ported at 32hz.

i mostly do short distance around my area driving so i never measured it

my ride is a 2000 nissan wingroad wagon & its engine is only 1.5 liters so it doesnt burn much gas

when i compete for spl its 2] xa3000d powerbass strapped on 1 15" RE = 153.0 dbs on a newly calibrated iasca meter which is the highest i have gotten so far just recently in april

daily set is just a pair of cdt 6.5" comps upfront will be upgraded soon & 1 12" idmax sealed is for bass ...
