damn that setup is going to rattle the hell out of your wing. Those subs pound. But your wing shouldnt loosen up at all.

If you need the pin out of the factory amp to bypass it, let me know...

it is a bit slower no questions about that.. you can feel it. but like I said, I never race the car, Im in for the looks, brakes, and fast exit ramps and if I need the space I can take it out any time I want. I wanted a fancy looking box/setup at first but I need the space and the "radial condom" spare
also this brings up another q, is ur box held down by anything? if not, does it move around in teh trunk during sharp turns and such?

Yep, no spare tire here... I never drive the car outside of the city without going with other cars, so I'm really in no danger without the spare.

My last car was a 2000 Galant GTZ, you know the one with the large wing.
After about a year, the wing started to come loose. I think the fiberglass around the bolts finally gave way to the constant vibrations. The wing could be lifted about 1.5 inches above the trunk, but it wouldn't come off. I'm sure if I pulled hard enough it would have. Don't know how much stronger Carbon is to fiberglass, but one things for shure It's a hell of alot more expensive.
