go with a BL and as for the box, fire it facing the trunk

Are you upgrading your amp?

"If you plan to use a rear firing setup in a trunk car, make sure your box doesn’t seal off the trunk from the passenger compartment. You need to leave some space for the waves to pass back into the interior of the car. Either make the box as low as possible so the wave passes over the box and enters the cabin via the seatback and rear deck, or reduce the width of the box so the wave can pass to the side and into the car’s interior. A big, giant box may make your trunk extremely loud, but all you’ll hear is muffled rattle if the box takes up the whole space behind the rear seat and under the rear deck." - AudioQue

Hope this helps.

EDIT: Oh yeah... get the BL :)

Go with the BL, and be courteous to those around you.

Testing will tell you which one would be best but usually sub and port firing towards the rear is better.

KnuKoncepts for your wiring needs, XS Power Batteries for you battery needs(contact nathan @ XS Power) and Sundown Audio for your amp needs. Make sure you do the Big Three wiring (http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/THE-BIG-3-t200.html) in 4 awg or bigger, depending on factory wiring size but most use 1/0awg wire. Buy a voltmeter and install it so you can watch your voltage.

But really what would help us is your budget you have available for amp, battery, wiring and so on? Are you getting the BL with the BP option or not (a 1500rms amp would suffice).
