Do we blame the guys that put the system together, or did the owner run out of funds? I was kind of wondering about that too.

Kicker makes some really decent subs. The Solo Baric subwoofer has gotten rave reviews. What's wrong with Kicker amps?

Theres nothing wrong with kicker , but I feel he meant that since no expense was spared on this SC430 that there are other companies who make equiptment that is at a more premium level..

Thanks for the complimets. by way of introduction I am one of the owners of AAP the company who built the car. I was on CL looking for some info on a SC300 I am looking at starting a project with and saw this thread.

As to the motor question it is running custom internalls and lower compression.

The audio was picked by us. The reason for using Kicker which is great equipment rather then another brand was this car was built using a new product Kicker had introduced way before it was for sale to the public. The car was used for a demo for the new product for Kicker corp. The system sounds great and is in keeping with the rest of the car and most important the owner loves it.

The car is a beast and quite fun to drive. The owner drives it quite offton this car gets used not a show queen. The owner is now ready to take the next step so 800-850hp is in the future of the car once we get a game plan lined out.

Any other questions feel free, I will make a point to stop back by and check this thread out.

Thank you both.

We have done a few projects with the GS400s doing superchargers mainly and our MAP ECU engine management and could eaisly supercharge the SC as well. We can of course do any one off creation maybe a twin turbo sc400 something small like some HKS 2530s all the way up to twin T 71s maybe. The beauty of custom fabrication is there are no rules or limits other then money for some of us.

I have always loved the lines of the SC300/400 a refined Supra so to speak. I am thinking of doing a wide one for my personal use in a 300 along with some turbo power.

Glad you guys liked the 430 its a real blast to drive and nice to see its appreciated here.
