Default New driver with bazooka amp/box

I have a tC with the bazooka sub. I tried turning the gain all the way up and I get distortion so it leaves me to beleive that there is a little left in the 100 w stock amp. Anyone try putting a better driver in the stock box with the stock amp?

yeah, I am not a car audio expert or anything, but I'm pretty sure turning the gain up doesn't really make it any louder. It isn't a volume control.

I doubt anyone had done much to the stock bazooka sub other than 1.) Leave it alone
or 2.) Throw it away and get seperate box w/sub and amp.

You may want to sell it and put the money towards upgrading. I would guess that the bazooka is as well engineered as it gets given what is powering it.

good luck

I used to be an audio nut, had 2 10 kicker comp vrs in a bandpass box. I got the VSE sub to save some trunk space. Just wondering if it's been tried. I don't like being the guinepig.
