Hey, if you are installing a custom sould system, consider this little thing I learn

het a load of this

I learned that if you install a custom sound system, mount it backwards cause it will give your car more thrust!

don't nibble the bait, KE

Newtons 3rd law of motion ....

If a sound wave pushed you forward then the return of the speaker to the centre position will pull you back Some folks, just get suckered in with nonsense like this. What's disturbing is Karrmann didn't put a smiley !!!!! So it looks like he took it hook-line-and-sinker

the only sound system ive ever seen that would make the car any faster was in an 800hp TS50, the sub box was hiding a NX nitrous oxide bottle

That's BS if I've ever heard it. Speaking of sound systems though, I have a buddy that just installed 12 12 inch subwoofers into his GMC truck, and he's pushing roughly 8000 watts. Overkill huh?
