Damn i love new parts!!

Almost as good just looking at them as it is to get to play with them installed!


Since your a magnaholic maybe you could tell which one you likebest after you get this one installed.

the new one is a 5x11x28 3.5".... the absolute best sounding was when i had a 5x18 round and 5x8x18 oval in series... about 3 months after i installed them that finally broke in and sounded freaking good!!! but they were tooo loud for me that is when i switched to the 5x11x28 3.0 and it is quiet... I had a 5x8x18 di/do 2.5" and it sounded like ***!!!!!

I used to have one of those til it wore out after using it to clean an entire block for paint. It was given to me and have yet to be able to find them anywhere else for a decent price.
