I am doing mid to high 150 dBs with over 10,000w and my sunroof is solid.
I have never seen anyone ever shatter a sunroof in my almost 14 years as an SPL competitor. The closest is Franky Rio who does over 160 in a lexus. His glass held but he has ripped the metal seams.
Too bad nobody has ever seen this guys HHR and he has no proof. total BS. about the alternator too.

ha, sounds like he screwed something up. The car wont draw any more current than it needs to so his statement makes no sense.
Power Master will debut the HHR alternator in January. Should bolt directly on. Now if you run an amp like mine, you need to run beefier power wire.
I have 4 runs of 0 awg to my amp.

you will get a kick out of this... i competed this last weekend... we had a box we made a long time ago for 3 12's sealed up.... lol was only expecting maybe 132 db's for 30 seconds of music....
I popped a 144.5 on 30 seconds of music. BAHAHAHA...the hhr is the new loud car out there. A CRX showed up and got at 146.8 with 2 18" Aq's.... i wasnt mad i lost.... i figured, well once i have my other 12 in there and a damn port.... im gonna put CRX's to shame.

I have beaten a few CRXs.
My current install is pretty much a street C setup but I just took out the rear seat so I am in No Wall. But I am doing 153s compared to 155s or so in street C CRXs.

Im thinking of possibly running SPL next year along with the SQ stuff already. Just figured what the heck. I believe i can do low to mid 40s. Not sure tho. If it wasnt for it bein a daily driving car and only car, Id try to squeeze 4 more 12s in it.

well probably 2 weeks and we are starting with the wall for 4 12's... eek gonna be alot of work... trying to get it all done by spring break for padre! WOOT WOOT! crossing my fingers.. thankfully i am starting on this wall now and have a whole year to get it right for finalz... A 156 is a MUST for 30 seconds of music to win.... A MUST! i can see myself going through several different types of subs through out the year... and 2 more 40.1's
im passing on sponsorships and representing brands/dealers for the time being until i can show i can win at finals... then hopefully companies will be doing better (damn economy) and i get a good contract thats more desired than begging for one.
