What did you do to your mk7 today?

[El_bigote_AJ]

I am jumping into this discussion and have no idea where it begins, but I'd like to do the one and done setup

You got the base stereo (non fender?)

Just go helix, unless you really want to have actual loud bass.

my setup, now that I've done it, is stupid easy to do and it can take a LOT......social club misfits nearly crushes my hatch window lol. Biggest wait time was for my box to be built for the Dayton sub.

Got the wrinkling drivers window and bubbling hatch window tints fixed.

Started her up and let her run for a few min. Thankfully the fire was only cosmetic damage. Back to saving up for another clutch.

What clutch are you using and how many have you been through?

I have the fender system in my 2019 GTI Autobahn. I'm down for actual loud bass depending on the price

I am on the original ACT VW9-HDSS -(rated to 500/tq), that was installed at around 55k miles. It has been in for the past 60k at Unitronic Stage 2 hp right at 400tq, and the last several thousand miles with IS38 swap with Diggs tune via OS, at whatever the power level is (I honestly dont know what she is pushing now). She was fast is all I can say, and clutch was trigger quick engaging right until is wasn't.

Here is where I got mine:

Will probably replace with their 6 puck setup and extreme pp.

Out of curiosity where's your clutches bite point? Right near the very top?

 

[Diggs24]

Blew up my first clutch! Sweet.

That's where it's always been?

Step one get this
Lc2i
And This
Thing. (Ask @StorableComa what are the wire/pin sizes needed)

Step 2 show us the sub or tell us what it is so we can determine the right amp and load needed.

Yeah but my layers of “versions” I wasted money on Can help others save money on a “one and done setup” like your cost effect dayton audio sub

I have this:

Yes - yellow diaphragm has been removed from bleeder to increase fluid flow.

A shallow… what’s the box look like then? Or measurements of it? Also, are you sure which one you have? Dual 2 ohm or dual 4 ohm

 

[Diggs24]

Its the same one we all run when we use the fender sub output. 2 ohm DVC shallow 12". I have it as well in a shallow box.
