I doubt I will stick with the exhaust if we swapped, I always tend to end up with something Borla. However I do want to prove to @captain_jack that his exhaust can actually not sound like he's trying to announce to Harley's that he's coming.

I've gotten like four I just toss them in The trash. It's required by law they come serve you In person unless you waive your right by signing the ticket they send you in the mail. After 120 days it goes away. If you don't end up answering your door for the person who comes to serve you if they ever come at all haha.

Sunrise is a lot better especially with the winter being as bad as it has been this year sunrise makes their own snow every night. Snowbowl in flagstaff just started making their own snow last season so I don't think they produce as much which leaves the runs pretty crappy in bad winters like this. Also sunrise has a speedlift and more mountains can get a lot more runs in and on a lot more trails. Just my two cents

The Isis was mine to begin with and it was exactly what you described you wanted, but I'm not sure how it would change with a header. Very mellow but grumble at wot. And for the record @Cross I don't announce to Harleys that I'm arriving...they are still louder then mine :-P

may the schwartz be with you....

Seeking advice from you audio folks out there. I'm pretty happy with how my stock speakers are performing with the new head unit (Pioneer 4600bt) as far as the highs and mids, but I feel that its lacking on the low end. I feel that the solution to my needs would be one of those small enclosures that take up very little space. I don't need the earthshaking bass I once did when I was younger, but something you can feel hit. So choices have been narrowed down between the JL Audio CP108LG-W3v3 (not sure what amp to pair it with, looking for suggestions) or Kicker 11HS8 which already includes an amp. Anyone have experience with either of these?

I just installed this yesterday. Still tuning the gain and frequency crossover but you're welcome to do a sit in to gauge the right amount of watts you want to add.

At first I looked at those shallow ones but ultimately I wanted a little more air space since the 6.5 subs already do a pretty decent job. I tried the below two first and then settled on the Blaupunkt. The Boss had the power but not enough air space/size, and the Dual sounded good but not quite enough power.

I think you even live around the corner from me (figuratively, I'm at Higley and Ray).
