yes, I replaced mine with a better quality shallow mount sub and it did make a noticable difference. Not gonna be a window rattler, but still better.

really depends on how much you want to spend, most decent ones will sound better

What brand and P/N sub, if you don't mind? Also, did you wire it in to the stock Pioneer amp, or add a new amp? I'd love to be able to just add the sub if that was all you did to get better bass!

this is what I put in mine:

http://www.amazon.com/Infinity-Bassl.../dp/B000063TJY


It has 2 10's and an amp. It's all one unit, it's small, and it fits perfect under the spare tire. It's not to much at all...it just sounds really really good...more like a louder, more bassier factory tone. You can probably get them on ebay pretty cheap.

I also hooked mine up using the factory CD player using a "line out converter" that way I was able to keep my factory CD player.
