Default 4 inch component suggestions...

I need something small that will fit with an 8 inch sub in the door, tried test fitting a 6.5 and no way, I have to dig around the garage for a 5.25 but I'm having my doubts but there's a ton of options.

Trying to keep from putting the subs in the back and keeping the weight more centralized and minimal for the road race car.

oh I should add I have 150 x 2 at 4 ohms to blast them with and I want loud and clean.

car kinda has a 427 1 7/8 headers 3 inch mids with no cats and straight pipes and we run with teh windows open, I'd like to hear some of the music at least. Has to compete with this

Focal makes a nice set, just be sure that the sub and mid aren't sharing the same airspace.

I have the 100KP in the street car with teh 165 KBE midbass setup (polykevlars). Kinda din wanna spend that much and I can't find prices anywhere on the 100 v slim polyglass stuff for the race car....all they have is a coaxil with an angled tweeter (think it might aimable) but since its going high on the opening its gonna be covered and I wanted the seperate tweet for aiming the noise at my skull.

these polyglass 8's were in NYC vette's car and the friggin thing pounded for door mounted 8's...I just need some noise to go with it, just sucks because I already have a set of old 6.5 inch polykevlars (with teh 47 tweets probably 3-4 years old, but hell I have em so no cash to lay out) but the mids have no chance in hell of fitting well with the 8's
