Wow there are some old timers here
Some of you do remember my car! Here is some good reading, enjoy:
I'll explain more about it since I have no pictures... I drove a 1985 Saab 900 Turbo. 4 doors and it was grey. Tinted windows of course. When you opened the back doors, all you saw was a wall. Carpeted off nicely. Kind of funny to see the reactions of people when they opened the back door to get in... The back seat was removed and a giant box was built, from floor to ceiling, in a 'W' shape. Each 'V' was right behind each front seats. In there it housed 4, 15" Dr, Crankenstein subs. So 8, 15" subs in total. I think this was one of the only cars back then to have this many speakers in the consumer class in Canada. So of course, everything was finished off properly. Most large SPL vehicles were NOT finished off and looked like a hack job... still do... I ran MB Quart 3way up font with Musi-comp cross overs. Later, I added some pods behind the seats, in between the subs to help out with mid frequencies. They too were MB Quart co-axials and they were run through a Musi-comp crossover too. Now both 3 way and 2 way crossovers were mounted in the kick panels of the car, under covers. Under the passenger side floor mat was a PG EQ 230, under a finished off cover. Why? I didn't have any room in the trunk! In the center consul, behind a plexi glass cover, housed a TBA and an Epi-center. I also had a few switches for stuff like fans and things. In the trunk I had (1) Frank Amp'n Stein, (1) Son of Frank amp'n Stein, (2) MS-2125's. Now I had ALL equipment painted the same paint as the Frank. Black with pink and blue fleck. Even the EQ was the same color. All the amps were mounted upside down to see the guts of the amps, so, I needed to use fans to help with the cooling. Under the MS's, lied 4 Optma batteries and (4) 1.2 farad capacitors. To see the batteries, you had to lift the MS's up in the middle. Therefore, the (2) MS's were on hinges to do this. That was tough to do, but I got it to work. Now, I had the AX-403, ESP-2, and the PG Bass cube under a fold down ledge where the rear deck used to be. Right by the rear window. I had no other room to put this gear. Everything was wired up using 2 gauge wire and ZPA RCA cable which needed some special, crazy gold plated connectors, which were friggin expensive! The RCA wires were to thick to use the regular connectors... The MS-275 in the Son of Frank powered the rear fill and the MQ-430 in the Frank, was bridged to power my 3 way fronts. Remember, everything was finished off nicely with carpet... If you opened the trunk, it looked stock, just the floor was higher up, until you removed my panels that covered my amps and equipment. Inside, you couldn't tell until you saw the speakers behind the seats. Funny thing. I drove and parked this thing at SAIT for a year and I never had an alarm... That's how normal this car looked, except the dragging rear end from all the weight. LOL! I normally hit 149.6 dB, But when I ported my box, I was hitting 151.7 dB with a blown sub... In the first year of competing, I had the loudest car in Canada. Even beating the Pro cars. From then on, everyone was building their vehicle to beat mine. Remember everyone, subwoofers back then hardly moved, their XMAX were very little... I chose the Cranks because they had a larger Xmax. If I used the XS subs from PG, I would have hit louder. I even tried the Focal multi magnet 15"'s. Yah, EXPENSIVE! But it was quieter then my Cranks, but, if I had the proper box for them, LOOK OUT! Funny, I even competed in the sound quality competition and did quite well, even with all those subs! Cool story eh!
Oh yah, my head unit was a Clarion Pro Audio tape deck and a Pro Audio CD changer which was under my sub box, I had to put it outside the car to compete cause it always skipped! I still have the Clarion stuff...
Story with the Frank Amp'n Stein : (If I was told correctly), the first idea of putting 2 amps together under one chassis came from the guys at J & A
Stereo in Prince George, B.C. I also believe they came up with the name. That's where I bought my Frank Amp'n Stein. Before, I had a car and before I had a driver's license. No kidding. And I always wanted to work for PG when Larry Fredricks was the boss...
I did the Slam Jam Competitions... Just curious. Thanks.
Dude was from Van and it was his daughters car, he wanted us to install an oldskool A/D/S PQ10 and some old A/D/S co axes in the back, he bought a deck and some Hertz for the front speakers. We did not install the amp because there was a HUGE POOL OF WATER under the front seat and into the left passengers foot well 
) Oh the rear A/D/S where blown
