I know this is kinda silly. Just wasnt sure if anyone knows if you can find a way to make the factory sub a little more powerful? I know its really underpowered. If there is a way to bridge it from factory to juice it up a little? I love the way it sounds but everyone that i take for a ride in my can never tell theres a "SUB" in it.....

LET ME KNOW YOUR THOUGHTS!

 

I really like the stereo in the SS. I know you can do better aftermarket, but for a factory stereo ours is damn good! I know it seems obvious, but have you set your bass/mid/treble settings? I mean, the instant my 11 year old heard my stereo, he says "there's a sub in it?" It is a decent sounding sub, and the imaging I think is quite good ( again, for factory). I've been a musician my whole life, and I think I'm pretty picky too!

 

There is a how-to on putting in a different sub in the stock box with little modification.

 

i like our sub too but in the end, i still think i'd like to have a little more BUMP in my trunk......i swear in the past i've seen threads about upping the power on the stock sub somehow but i could be wrong......

 

yeah i have adjusted the settings. i think i have been spoiled by my wifes 2006 eclipse with a
650 watt factory sterio system. That thing blew my mind... LOL i know this is funny but rap songs sound good in the cobalt.. however, I HATE RAP! some of the rock songs just dont feel like they did i the eclipse. I know there is a way to juice it up a little from factory. i wonder where the factory amp is located?

yeah that would be awesome to get a little more sound out of it. Come on guys what can we do?!?!

 

search long and hard thru these threads, and post this in that section lol unless a moderator moves it anyway.

They are good speakers for a sports car although pioneer isnt the best quality. If u really want a system, Go with a kenwood 10". You need an AMP but im pretty sure u know that. You might want to replace the door panel speakers as well for a crispy clean knock'n system.

 

thanks for all the help guys!

Oh yeah Killalee4 i have been a big fan of yours! 13.67 very very impressed! i bet you will set the stage 1 recored also man! keep up the good work!!!!

 

thanks but someone ran 13.60 and someone else ranned 13.5 flat

 

that 13.56 is still under speculation whether or not he was running a 50shot of nitrous at the time

 

i'ld really like to get my hands on a broken in stock tc. if i can take my stock ss/sc to 14.22 at my track, i'ld like to see what i can take a stock tc to

 

keep your eyes open man, they'll be some for sale that are broken soon enough i would expect.

 

i don't want a broken one haha. i just want to make a few passes with someone's who already has it broken in

 

oooo lol i thought u wanted a broken on to buy for dirt cheep and fix

 

no no. someone who is stock, yet past the break in period

 

wow. someone ran a 13.5???? what was his 60 foot? and what was his trap speed?

 

have no idea he has it posted on his signature, I forgot his name, he also posted the vid on youtube. im guessing the 60' was near 1.950-2.000 maybe iuno. im just talkin right now

 

**** i cant find it.... I have no idea how he got a 2.0 60ft on factory tires.... they are AWFUL!

 

he couldnt possibly have had stock tires. probably drag radials.

 

since i got you on my thread... what do you think we could run with a GOOD tune and slicks???

 

SOMEONE LET ME BORROW THEIR TC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hahaha

 

why?

 

depends on the driver. i say maybe 13.4, 13.3. Depends on the tune as well. computer tuned?, or the Gm tune comming out. either way it should be well under 13.5

 

lol 13.3 isnt well under 13.5... i was thinking maybe 12.9 or lower?

 

possibly in the high 12's i think, but like i said, it depends on the driver. most people would probably just see low 13's

now gm stage kit+tune+CAI. Then i say mid 12's, maybe less
