I'm not finished yet; but keep checking back, I'll be putting up more pictures soon.

Currently, the headunit, speakers, and sub have all been installed. The next step will be to install front component speakers with their own external amp, though this will probably not happen for a while as the Denon coaxials sound quite good already. I'm very pleased with the sub's performance... while I'm still tweaking everything, it already plays louder than I can stand, all the while delivering extremely accurate bass.

The custom built box came out really nice... while it is pretty simple compared to some custom installs, it still looks good; and more importantly, it is very solid. We made it from 3/4" MDF, with a double layer on the front baffle... there is absolutely no flex at all. =) Pictures of the sub install are coming soon, I just need to get them scanned; though I may end up retaking all of the pictures with a digicam for better results. =)

HaoleBoy's 1990 Acura Integra Here's a picture of the Integra... click on it to see a larger, less blurry version. Look at the shine on that paint... the result of a 4-step hand waxing that took an entire day.

HaoleBoy's 1990 Acura Integra Another pic. If you look closely, you can see a glimpse of my Dual-DTM exhaust. I needed a new exhaust anyway, and decided to be a bit different with the tips. =) Soon, I'm going to install Eibach Pro-Kit springs to give the car a subtle drop (about 1.5"). I also plan to tint the windows 15-20% to help keep the interior cooler. That's probably as far as my aftermarket mods will go, though.

HaoleBoy's 1990 Acura Integra Here's a rather crooked picture of my dash, notice the Clarion ProAudio DRX7575z headunit. It's a good HU, but I may upgrade it later. And yes, the car is parked in my front yard for this shot. =)

HaoleBoy's 1990 Acura Integra A closeup of the headunit (sorry for the poor picture quality). The headunit was installed using a Metra kit that allows a 1/2 DIN EQ to be mounted below it. It works well enough; but I'm going to flush mount it evenually. I'll probably use a piece of plexiglass with the back side painted black for a trim panel.

HaoleBoy's 1990 Acura Integra Here are my amps. The smaller one is an ESX Q1202, it will be powering my front speakers with 120x2 watts RMS. The larger one below it is an ESX Q1752, it is giving my sub 500 watts RMS briged @ 4 ohms.
These amps are known to be underrated, so while the system's total rated power will be 740 watts RMS, it should actually be more like 850 watts. =)
