[QUOTE="LCP, post: 167198, member: 2424"] guru Van, how much kick panel cavity volume do you reckon on your setup? If not mistaken, you did mention about having to relocate the bonnet lever, right? Is that a lot of work and material (cable, etc) change involved? What about the space for the right foot when pressing the throttle, is it compromised? Can still do heel-toe? Sorry for the many questions, but I need to have plenty of info before diving in... On the 160Hz roll-off, I came across this on some US-based forums, apparently they did use some test tones. But, it was definitely on 5.25" stock kickpanels, but non-stock 5.25" speakers. Assuming the stock kickpanel cavity dimension you gave is correct, that will give a volume of 0.04 cu ft only, assumption is a cylindrical shape with 6" diameter with 2.5 inch depth. That is definitely not enough. My hunt will go on... Anyway, many thanks to you, Affan and the rest of the ICE gurus here on your insights and tips... [/QUOTE]
