my plan as i am also watching this is to get the alpine a 4 ch amp (genesis, sinfoni or maybe DLS) a 12" sub and some components.
I competed for about a year in the iasca SQ section, learnt quite alot and if this kit tunes the car it will save so much time. Reading up on the alpine from the talkaudio forums the main critism is the alpine cant be manually adjusted alot so the setting it gives you is what you get whilst the RF 360.2 is meant to be more flexable but i dont think it does the imprint part.
i will wait and see what happens here, and if all the controls on the steering wheel still work would be interesting.
then i will take a trip to turners in sunderland and see if he can suggest any other options

Hey Mate,
Yes, I to have been trawling through the TalkAudio forums as well for some more hints as to how this Alpine unit works best but as yet not seen any indepth reports or pictures of installs using one.
I'm sure you are correct, this unit will require additional amps to power the cars existing speakers which isn't a bad thing as they will be amp'd up to a more useable power rating.
We haven't got long now till psykik gets his car back, going to be a long night for him tonight if it's tomorrow the pick up
