yea there not much of a trunk at all. sunday when my buddy gets done puttin my head unit in and laying the wires to the trunk, he and I will be building the box right into the car. we know the air specs obviously so we just gotta figure out the best direction to fire it, wire it etc. people who have systems in GTO's say the bass still gets into the cabin plenty even though the gas tank is right there in the trunk lol

[Jedi3]

Yea the gas tank location is a bitch for sure, make sure you dont drill any holes in it.

and the 12W3 2 ohm sub was only 157 shipped. and it will be arriving today but the amp wont be here till next week...

[danmccormick87]

thats the plan dan! ill be taking em off either this evening or tomorrow depending cuz i have drill this weekend

Awesome and glad to hear you got them off!

Looking really good, and can't wait for future mods! You should also look into LED reverse bulbs too

[Ghost]

[Crimson]

update:

went and had my box build today. amp should be coming on tuesday, CAI by wednesday. and i just ordered 55W highs and lows for her from DDM tuning for 80 bucks shipped to my door 8k btw.

and if the sales go as planned my rims and tires will be sold next month then its exhaust....

[60DegreeVVT]

what exhaust are you going to put on that beast?

Spintech?

[Crimson]

what exhaust are you going to put on that beast?

Spintech?

eh idk. i think im gunna stick with the single outlet because its a bit of a pita to make it dual and spintech is only dual

[60DegreeVVT]

They do sell a True Dual // Single side exhaust.

it is true but exits on the left side.

That what you are looking at?

[Jakeman17]

Looks good.

WI temps?? You live in IL

Looks good.

bought the car in madison. must wait for them to mail me the title so i can put my IL plates on it and register it in IL

[Jakeman17]

Makes sense. Car looks really clean for the roads you drive on.

rofl thanks i never go more than 20 mph on it... usually more like 15

[Jedi3]

Your slacking on your updates buddy!

I was over on G6p and what did I find?!?! UPDATES but none for us.

[[ChaosweaveR]]

I never understood why Holden originally designed the Monaro to have single exhaust anyway...dual outlets should be a must with our GTO.

[Sam]

W3's are awesome, I don't care what anyone says, they hit very hard and well worth the money.

[Crimson]

ah i found you my precious thread....

okay on to the updates.

My gto had a reoccuring CEL and i couldn't figure it out so i returned it to the dealership and got my g6 back..

jk but they fixed my gto and here was their findings:

Intake Manifold Gasket leak-replaced

Cleaned all injectors in bank 1

1 injector failed a test so it was replaced.

almost a full tank of gas later and still no CEL...fingers crossed.

ill be waiting at least a week from last friday before i even think about doing my intake.

pics of the sub and audio system....HIDs sometime this week

More pics later this week hopefully with a good HID install (highs and lows 55w 8k)

[Jedi3]

The radio looks super clean in there and just like I predicted by by trunk space. The sub, box and amp all looks like a clean install and no holes in the gas tank. Thats great they fixed the Intake Manifold Gasket and all. I thought you already put an intake on?

[[ChaosweaveR]]

I swear, every GM pushrod V6 and V8 has a damned intake manifold leakage.

Glad it's fixed. I would invest in an OBDII scanner for yourself, one of the simple ones, and just crossreference the codes online, or just post them here. Working at Autozone for three years, and I remember what most are just by the code.
