For some people the factory Bose premium audio system is just not good enough.

Nothing makes us more proud at Al & Ed’s than when a client demands that we completely remove his factory Bose Audio system and upgrade it. Here is what we did to make this Porsche sound awesome.

In order to properly integrate with the factory radio and to have full control of all the speakers we installed,  an Audio Control LC8I and two Rockford Fosgate 3sixty.2 EQ Processors were integrated into the car. After that, the front and rear Bose speakers we replaced with 2 sets of Focal 165KRX3  component speakers.   These 3-way speakers sound incredible and were installed in the factory front and rear locations. No cutting was necessary.

The owner of this car  likes bass! And we wanted to make sure that we gave him what he likes. Two JL Audio 12W6V2D4 woofers were installed in a custom enclosure in the rear hatch cargo area.  Now that all the speakers and processors were in place we wanted to make sure that we could maximize the performance of each speaker by giving them enough power to perform.  Four Alpine PDX series amplifiers were installed in the car totaling over 2,400 watts of power!

Inspired by the black leather and gloss black paint of the car we continued with that theme to showcase the amplifiers and woofers in the cargo area.

Complete exterior transformation from a stock Turbo to a Vorsteiner Masterpiece.

This amazing kit inlcudes the following.

* New front bumper with carbon fiber inserts and front lip spoiler

* New side skirts with carbon fiber inserts

* New rear bumper with carbon fiber deffuser

*  Carbon fiber rear duck tail spoiler

* Titanium cat back exhaust system

* 21″ Forged 3-piece wheels

This Porsche looks like it going 150 MPH while standing still. Thanks our Ticket Avoidance System the owner is safe of the streets.

The Escort 9500Ci is hands down the best installed radar detector with front and rear laser defusers on the market. Utilizing the finest of technology this system will warn the driver when it detects X,K or KA radar frequencies or Laser. While some of these radar frequencies are no longer being used by law enforcement agencies you have the ability to “shut off” unwanted bands. This assures you that when driving in your local community the 9500 CI will not false alarm you when driving by banks or super markets that also emit those frequencies. Hidden behind the front bumper of the car is the main radar detection device that offers 360 degree detection.

Besides Radar guns, law enforcement is also now using more precise Laser guns. Even though you might have a system that detects laser, by the time it warns you your speed has been clocked by the gun! The ONLY was to protect yourself is to “defuse” it. The 9500CI comes with 3 laser defusers. Two are installed in the front bumper and must be unobstructed to assure proper defusing. The third one is installed in the rear of the car on your licence plate frame for protection. Now when your car gets hit by a Laser gun it does now show your speed on the gun by actually a misfire. In the mean time you have been warned audibly and visually by the 9500CI that Laser is being defused and that should give you enough time to slow down.

In addition to all this the 9500CI also warns you of camera intersections via GPS. Yes, this system warns you as you are approaching a camera intersection. You have ability to update your 9500CI via USB for more camera intersections as they become available.
