My friend and I tried installed the aforementioned sub in my car with the fast harness. The sub turned on and played but not as much as you'd expect an 8 inch sub. Anyone else ran into this? If so what'd you do to get the full power?

Which model? link?
From what I found-
It's 100watts MAX.
so probably ~50ish watts rms.
50watts isn't much to begin with.
Play with the crossover settings.
Take a pic of the back of the amp.
How many amps is the fuse?
The only idea I have is to boost the signal.
Again, 50watts is not much to begin with.

And post in the right section. http://www.ft86club.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=27

I just installed the BTA850FH in mine. I first tapped into the rear speaker wires. Didn't sound too impressive. I eventually switched to the front speakers, and it's such a huge difference. I guess these tubes require full range signal, and the rear speakers are high pass filtered.

With that said, where did you tap into? Also, where did you ground it? Furthermore, I have the tube firing rearward and the port up top.
