u can also save some power by installing hid headlights and led marker and turn lamps, makes a big differince and everything will be brighter and draw less amps, thats what i did and it helped the dimming problem alot.

i really need to do a write up of my stereo. u know its big if the sub and amp require a 4gauge wire for the voice coils.

^does not!! lol that's crazy, i've seen legit 4000W subs (we pushed over 15kW into them) and they weren't using 4ga to the coils, it might have only been 10ga at the most.Trees aren't kind to me...

Deadening is something you really should address. Brand spankin new cars with walmart stereos sound great, and an old car with a maxed out credit card on equipment still isn't right.1993 GL 5 speed

^^i do agree, ever watch how much the body panels of a festiva flex with big stereo systems? Sound deadening will help dramatically and help keep the sound inside the car
1988 323 Station Wagon - KLG4 swapped
1988 323 GT - B6T Powered
2008 Ford Escape - Rollover Survivor
1990 Festiva - First Ever Completed KLZE swap (SOLD)
If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

Just swap the alternator with something larger to be safe, then run name brand speaker wire from Radioshack, vs. buying cheap off-brand junk that the insulation will rot off of and cause shorts. Then wire up an amp, some crossovers, 2 tweeters, 2 woofers, and 1 or 2 subs in the trunk. If you have a good amp and good speakers, the head unit can be any old walmart $40 sale CD/ iPod/ radio.1990 White L-Plus 5-speed rust-machine

I do like putting a 10" glassed into the spare tire well. I've done this on more than one car and its so easy to seal up and sounds very nice. A decent 10" won't project to all the neighbors how loud you are but do you want your all your hard work stolen?1993 GL 5 speed
