I contacted Brandon about Ground Zero's need to get their name out there in the good ole USA and my goals match what Ground Zero wants to see, so I have purchased quite a few components to install in my newly acquired Scion xB. I plan to post a build log both there and in the actual build log section. The goal with my vehicle is to build it without considering the classification rules of any particular organization and then compete where ever I am classified.
The xB will be fully deadened with a full layer of CLD on all surfaces including the inner and outer door panels. I will layer a 3/8'' bonded cotton radiant barrier on top of the CLD on the roof and floor. The roof will be complete at that point and the floor will receive a healthy dose of MLV. The rest of the vehicle will get the CLD>1/8'' neoprene CCF>MLV. Short paragraph, that details more work that I care to think about right now LOL.
The layout for the audio gear may change as things move on, but the Hydrogen subs and Uranium amps will go under a false floor with some acrylic and aluminum accents involved in the trim panels. Plutonium tweeters will either go in the sail panels or in the pillars. Plutonium midranges will probably go in the pillars unless I find another placement that works better for them. Midbass is going to be a pair of the NOS Morel MW220's either in the doors, kicks or possibly under the front seats. When Ground Zero releases an 8'' midbass, it will replace the Morel.
Everyone on here has been excited to see what I think of the Ground Zero equipment, so I will do my best to answer any questions and post comments on everything as I work on this. Initial product pictures and comments will follow as soon as we are done mass killing turkeys to celebrate being able to do things like this!

Many thanks to Brandon and Scott at Ground Zero USA for the opportunity to experience this fine German-Engineered equipment.
