Would be grateful for any help. I just got my 18 btl in the mail and would like to start to build a box. I have built alot of sealed boxes but haven't built a ported box. I drive a 98 tahoe so size is not a problem. It will be used in a daily setup would like to tune that way but get loud thanks for any help

How about 49" wide (perfect fit) x 20" tall x 20" deep. Port will be 18.5" tall x 5.5" wide. Sub and port facing rearward. It works great. had a setup very close to this in my suburban with a RE XXX 18.

Sorry, the box shoudl be 20" deep. I was thinking about the box designs I did for the Q 12's today.

49" x 20" x 20" makes for 7 ft^3 tuned to 32 Hz with a little over 100 in^2 of port.

So you had this setup and it was loud just wonderin how would you face the woofer thanks for plans

oh sorry just noticed you already said woofer and port back thanks again.

also you think this will get loud with a saz 3000d already paid for just wait on new ones

Here is a new design with the sub and port rearward. I experimented with my suburban and liked the sub rearward. To me it sounded better playing music. . .If you want the sub to be on top, let me know and I will make a couple of quick changes to move it to the top.
