Easy Mustang Mach-E Subwoofer Upgrade

-

This won't be as earth-shaking as a dedicated subwoofer amp and speaker, but it does provide a big improvement over the stock B&O subwoofer found in the Mach-E. Gives a real thump to the deep bass. It also has the benefit of not modifying any stock parts.

Parts

  • Subwoofer: 12" shallow mount speaker and box: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09X6GJVS9
  • Connector: https://edsparts.com/products/ck-wpt1456?variant=44987706343725  or else here  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0891YQ499
  • 16-gauge speaker wire
Instructions

  1. Connect one wire end to the connecter, using the top 2 holes, and black for negative
  2. Connect the other wire end to the subwoofer connectors
  3. Remove the rear deck and anything underneath that
  4. Remove the tailgate cover and side trim to get access to the subwoofer
  5. Place the new subwoofer in the empty cavity below the rear deck
  6. Unplug the stock subwoofer and connect the new subwoofer
  7. Replace the trim, cover, rear deck, and enjoy

Comparing SELECT Performance of Joining Integers vs GUIDs in SQL Server

As shown in this article , as long as the indexes are maintained to keep fragmentation down the performance is similar, with  INT  slightly ahead in both index size and the speed of CRUD operations. The key is storing the GUID as a UNIQUEIDENTIFIER datatype and never using VARCHAR. Not only is SQL Server less efficient at comparing strings, there's also a chance to run into collation issues comparing across databases. In these discussions, one thing I haven't seen is a comparison of SELECT performance when joining different datatypes. After all, it's rare to find queries that don't stretch across multiple tables in a relational database. I used the StackOverflow2013 database (83 GB size) for testing.
