ok with the dimensions you gave me, you can make a box this size. 8.865 cuft with 102.5 sq inches of port area. it will be tuned to around 32hz. since we have a lot of volume to work with, your box is able to achieve the desired tuning frequency without the L bend. no L bend = less turbulance. you car will be so fricking loud and clean i can't wait to hear it. 2 re xxx 15s with 2 rd audio 1750.1. man just thinking about it is giving me a woody. DAYAM!!!

once the box is built and put in to place, you can listen to it. then on another day, we will.... 1. use spray foam deadener to fill in the gap between the box and the car. 2. once the deadener hardens, we will resin it with resin mat. 3. once the resin cures, sand it and make it smooth. 4. use body filler for any imperfections. 5. sand it again and paint it or cover it with vinyl. your car will look sick after that. |

not sure about difference but i was thinking of putting the port on the driver side. we can do middle too if you like. its just if we do the port along side one of the walls, its easier to add length to it if you want it lower tuned. |

ok after sean's comment, i got to thinking. i think we are getting too greedy with the volume of the box. so i decided it should be a tad smaller. it comes out to 8 cuft. with the driver displacement it will be a bit smaller than that. i think it would be better like this. as you can see, i shaved off 2 inches from the height.
