Had a mix'n match on before and now i have a 2.25" straight through.

The only problem is i think it is losing power in the midrange. But because it is so loud i can't tell

So is a 2" better or will a silencer added to the system help create a little back preassure.

2 - 2.25" is fine for your spec.

Hmmm. It's a shame that Dave's RR is so far away. I'd try and prove that it is down.

How much for a scilencer Mr Dave A???
