Help With my Box Build

[Grim 0]

Alright I started on one more box last week and I am ditching it already. Well im going to finish it for my friends sub, and then start over.

I need advice though.

Its a daily driver, but I want it to go as loud as possible.

I think Ill stay with 32hz

8 Cubes

Box Design thanks to rpfuror on caraudio.com

Round the ports

And 45's in every corner

Double Baffled

Bracing

Any other ideas?

Will Sound Deadener(Second Skin) make that much of a difference in SPL score?

dampening pad behind the woofer

sound deadening your entire vehicle WELL will help with SPL. check competition rules as to how thick/many layers you are allowed if it is limited before you go slapping a ton of deadening down.
