Spend the money on engine mods and roll around with the window down listening to the engine

Doesn't sound to bad of a system. I personally like Pioneer decks over kenwood.

Still debating on selling the Iceman. (It has been cut for ATX)
I have been planning something and have to find all the parts and what it will cost me to put it together. If I go that route, the Iceman should be for sale.

Every thought of just powering the Boston's withy a amp? Subs can be cool untill some decides they want yours! I ahve had my 2 neons broke into a total of 6 times!
No more big audio for me.

i would definitally not use a prefab box.. have some1 build u a box or build it yourself.. and as far as subs and amp go how much are you willing to spend? if your on a tight budget and want good sounding loud subs then go with something from www.mach5audio.com and make sure who ever builds your box makes it to wat they recomend! i hate seeing ppl spend good money on a system then have it soud like shit b/c they have a small box.. a sub is only as good as its platform.. and as far as head units go just get 1 that you like.. and make sure it has a way for you to adjust bass mids and treble.. and looks like you are going in the right direction as far as speakers.. are they going 2 b componet or not? if not then get 2 ways 3 ways will get muddy faster.. lemme know if u want more help

im pretty sure the bostons are 2 ways

and the box for the prefabbed is as big as i can get it and still fit it in my trunk (about 30.5" wide, 16 or so tall)

Spry the inside of your box with truck bed liner. Helps seal the box.
