looking to get some subs


well i posted this in the electronics section but no1 ever looks there so i posted it here

all right well im looking to get 1 or 2 subs into my mustang, i have about 400 to spend on everything i need for the subs/amps/wireing/(maybe install)
i was thinking probally just get 1 good sub and ill be fine, what kind of subs would u suggest and also what kind of amp
heres the deck i have installed in my car
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....=1166840026727
i would like to have it professianly installed but idunno if 400 is enough to buy it all and have it installed, me/my brother/my dad could install it but it would probally take us a few weeks, we did a custom install on my brothers fiero so i think we could do it in mine

so any suggestions on what i should get would be greatly appreciated

I say dont put one in. I think they are stupid in Muscle cars or sport cars.

People want to go fast but then they add 80-200 lbs of audio equipment, depending on what their setup is, to there cars. just making them heavier.

Just senseless to me.

well personally i think you get what you pay for (in most cases) i was thinking of subs too but i thought it would add too much weight and slow down a slow car. lol. so im just thinking of maybe doing some better speakers =(

lol tru dat. haha im about 6'3 190 something. it also depends what your overall plans are for your stang. if you like taking it to the track or are trying to make it faster it might not be the best idea but if its just your DD why not and like i said before you get what you pay for

well im stupid, i just went to circuitcity.com and theres a bunch of bass bundles for under 400, but u gotta remember the cables arent that cheap either like 50 bucks for the cables
but the real thing im worried about is what kind of boxes will fit in the trunk, ive heard u have to use like a truck box or build a custom one to get it to fit in does any1 know about that?
also what about bass tubes, how do those sound?
