audio takes away from your performance, subs are heavy.

Performance all the way for me. I used to dump my coin into audio and realized I never used it enough and would get tons more joy hearing my car sound/perform or look good rather than be banging on my eardrums.

Performance FTW!!!!!

what good is it when a Toyota Echo passes you and you're listening to the same songs over and over again with the music so loud you didn't even notice the Echo sneakin up behind you????

since my last 2 cars are turbo-aspirated....i'd rather spend a few dollars to get more horsepower with bolt on parts....then to increase the db levels.......without question!!!

that being said....i like my Ipod setup with my 2 10" JL Audio's, MBQuart mid's and tweet's with a Kenwood mp3 HU .....but all that means nothing when i turn the music down to listen to my exhaust and turbo spoolin' up!!! If you haven't driven a car with a turbo, you won't understand.

lets hope there are no echo hatches turboed around here then because they have owned a ton of mustangs
there was actually a couple in the states that always went to car shows and kept driving by annoying the mustang drivers then when the mustangs went after them the echos would own them pretty funny if you ask me lol


its all about the power to weight ratio.

power is awesome, but when you work a part time job and ur parents wont let u get your own car cause they are nazi douchebags, then sound system is where its at if u want to do any mods to your car at all, sound system and visual is all i can do in my case...

I don't need an upgraded stereo, I enjoy listening to my engine too much. My stereo is 100% stock with an iPod adapter. pirat

Performance , no questions asked. i mean if i want music really loud in stereo i would go home and blair my new britney spears album to hell yells at me. All you should need in a car is 6 speakers at the most for clearity , for those who want bass ..get a 10" sub little 250 amp. and listen to music rather then knock down the knic knacks at R&H davis .. in my opion anyways lol and maybe a dvd player for some XXX Cool
