Default My xB @ Premiere Longo Show shots updated w/models

Just thought I'd share some of my photos of my xB from the Premiere Longo Show in Irwindale this past Sunday. Rolled in with my crew Scion Militia, but was approached by some of the guys from Speed Element & asked if I would display my car in their booth so I said sure. Saw No Limitz there didn't get a chance to talk to him but ride was looking good as usual man & Congrats on coming away with a win (like it was even a contest) lol

Some new mods I did for the show was
Speed-Element Window Visors
Killerglass Radiator Hose w/ Long Life coolant/antifreeze
Redline Tuning QuickLift Elite Hood kit
Audio system from The Audio Shop in Whittier Ca.
The audio was done as a last minute deal, the box and frame still need to be detailed I'm going back during the week to add some led lights and redo the fabric.

Enjoy!

Def one of the nicest SW xB's out there, I just love what you have done
Speed-Element Window Visors are also next on my list along with rim's. Sub box look's clean love the box set up. Def hope to follow in your lead to have one Super clean SW.

Thanx 4 the love. I might go with a flush floor install later on, really wanted to save some money since times are tough and going with a box was a cheaper set up.

No problem!! Keep up the great work.

Yea B4 i did my whole system i was looking into flush floor but wanted to much and i def did not wanna shell out the extra bucks. Im very happy with my setup i have super loud and amazing bass. At the moment im out of work so im trying my best to mod on a buget but its def alot harder than it sounds. I hope things get better so i can get another job and get back to some what normal income.

Either way your set up look's awsome and def must sound killer.

Ya it hits pretty hard, this is my first real build with audio im not use to the bass. they did not put a sub controller because the guy pointed out that on my head unit i can lower and raise the bass. but even with my premiere head unit with the bass all the way to -5 it hits really good. im gonna have him install a subwoofer controller. sometimes i dont wanna hear the bass all the time u know.

im such a noobie when it comes to audio and electrical stuff. im more of a mechanical person. ive done almost everything to the car myself. if i was electically inclined i would of taking a shot at building everything myself lol.

I have a question with a subwoofer controller that will lower the sub power/volume of the subs right? besides turning the bass level on my premiere head unit to -5.

So i found my manual to the head unit. What do you think would be better having them connect the subs to the head unit so i can adjust them through the head unit or have them install it seperate from the head unit?

Would there be a big or small difference either or ?

It seems like a good budget amp but it does not have a remote bass ****, so whatever bass controls you have on your radio will have to do. What brand/model radio are you using.

im have the scion premuim pioneer radion (factory upgraded radio)

it has a subwoofer output phase but im not sure if that is just for the factory subwoofer or if the audio shop would be able to connect the set up to the radio so i can control the sub output through the head unit

Im not sure if you can wire in a sub controller. you would to find out how the shop hooked up the amp. I dont know that much about the factory upgraded radio to really answer correctly. sorry, Good luck

I do believe you have control of the sub outs on the Premium Pioneer stereo. I know I have control in my DEH-P980BT, but that's an all together higher end headunit.


Car definitely looks good, bro! I need to get out to California. This cold and snow is getting to me.

And Whyoming was AWFUL! So cold it felt like my hands were burning.

I'm going to Idaho to finally get my bumper painted and hood fixed by Chris! Then maybe, just maybe my car might look somewhere close to Bobby's. Just not as good. :D
