Ive been searching with no luck. Any idea who might have the Loudest DB Versa?

I made this joke at work the other day, and trying to see if its actually possible. Mine is rounding its final stages,(until im bored and redo it lol) and just wondering if there is somebody else like me doing a Versa DB drag car. Its meant to be our demo car for work, but it will have a pretty high db rating when we are done.

This was meant as Audio. And I guarantee my stereo is louder than his exhaust.

Lordy jane, I would guess that would give you in the vicinity of 145db with that setup. I don't have nearly that much RMS in mine, but with ~500 RMS myself, I am just over 130db I think.

Used to judge IASCA back in the day. It's not just about db.

True, its not all about DB.

Im going to be doing Memphis Components in all 4 doors, and keep the Bravox tweeters in the A Pillar.

I currently have Infinity components in all 4 doors. So I have a total of 6 tweeter and 4 6.5s. And my 4 channel is rated at 500 RMS.

I'm pretty loud, but clean and well layered. I need to get new rear speakers to support more midrange frequencies.

You don't have to spend a lot to have a good sounding system. I use to be an IASCA SQ judge as well. There were plenty of high-dollar systems that sounded great. But I was always more impressed by the cars that sounded great without the $$$$.

The technology is now such that properly selected equipment and a well thought out install, can result in great sound. You just have to select what's important and focus on that. For example, a decent headunit can be had for <$200, and a good 4-channel amp for <$350. Good front stage components for $350 and a single 10" sub for $150. sub box and wiring, $100.

Bridge 2 channels into 1 for the sub. The components off of the other two channels and you're good to go. Dynamat or other noise deadening coating helps. Speaker pods in the kick panels or in front of the little glass triangles would be an improvement. You could run the stock rear speakers off of the headunit for rear fill, if you like that sort of thing. Honestly, it's the details that really improve the sound, not the money spent. Some of the best systems I've heard were also the simplest, and were built by anal-retentive people.
