Wednesday I drove to Springfield Mo. to have a JL Stealthbox installed along with a 300.1 amp. Creative Car Audio did the job 200.00$ cheaper than A.A. in Tulsa. They did a great job plus I got to spend the day driving my car. The top speed on the way back was 83mph and the average speed was 55mph. The gas mileage was 32miles per gallon. This is with an automatic transmission. Would I buy an automatic again? In a heartbeat. The paddles are faster in changing gears ( IMHO ) and you don't have to worry about a clutch
JL said not to connect the Stealthbox to factory speakers if using a 500 watt amp. as it would blow out factory speakers. You would have to change speakers and I didn't want to get into that expense. A.A. wanted to run the factory speakers off a 500 watt amp so I called JL to check. The system sounds great and the instalation looks beautiful.
Love this car !!!
