To the ear, it wont sound as loud firing into the cabin, but it may or may not gain you on the mic. I'm louder in my civic trunk firing into the trunk. If I sealed it off and had it firing into the cabin, I would most likely be louder that way (SPL wise).
April 23, 200916 yr Author getting the box in my trunk took a long time and taking it out will take even longer because its such a tight fit

April 23, 200916 yr I've got a 15' Bl fully loaded in 3 cubs also.... I turned mine around in a 04 Taurus and not it wasn't louder only gain was the bass seemed to be a bit more punchy with double bass kicks in some hard core grunge metal type music but thats about it if your into rap I would proly leave it
