i would stick to the other design. that chit is just weird looking :)

seriously you would have no problems using the one larger port, it isn't gonna be crazy long

Yeah I don't know about all that. Just one port with the correct amount of surface area is what you will want.

oh and you are saying i will need the BIGGEST box possible to fit in the trunk? 2 12" BLs would be better in the biggest box possible for my trunk?

What we are saying is if you have 5.0 cu ft net and if one 12 requires 1 - 2.5 Cu Ft per woofer and one 15 requires 2.5- 5.0 cu ft per woofer you are probably better off with the 12s...

yeah thats what i realized too....id rather have 2 maxxed out 12s rather than 2 15's that sound like total chit....but again for a future install, i wanna upgrade to 2 12" btls, but all im focused on is what i am gonna get as my college acceptance present which is the 2 BLs =)

You can also get really creative with sound deadening to reduce rattles. Rattling everything in your car will be cool at first, then it will get annoying and you'll start tracking them down

I wouldn't say "maxxed out" . More like "optimal" :P Usually maxxed is used in a situation where mechanical or thermal limits are being reached or when clipping begins to occur.

yeah there is this stuff that looks like aluminum foil in the front and duct tape in the back that i am gonna put all over the inside of the trunk to have clean sound coming out....thx for reminding me about that...do u know i site where i can get it for a good price cuz at the circuit city here it is 200 bucks for the entire trunk

get o roll and it will be enough to do your trunk well and probably the doors also. Most trunk kits are like 15-20 square feet max, so thats 3 times the material for less $$$

so this is the best one out there? i will get it then =)

"best one out there" is debatable. I prefer second Skin myself :)

It's not the best, but it's very good and the price is great. As far as wire, i dunno if i would go with the KLM, but i like the Knu kollossus and kolossus fleks a lot.

hows the brand dynamat for the dampening mat?

Good, but not that great. There is better out there...for much cheaper.

I saw a roll of 1/0 AWG for like 20 dollars on parts express on sale, i think it was only 20 feet or so. Welding cable is good too...makes you wonder what you are really paying for with "High End" cables.

Welding cable is a car audio hero.

Dynamat is overpriced and you are paying for the name... IMO

Good luck with the build, get some pics up when you start it.
