June 13, 200916 yr Author Try going with the whole width, lower the top, and tune lower. Maybe around 30-31hz with about 90 in^2 of port. Sit back and enjoy It is already at the complete width of my wheel wells. I was thinkig of shortning it a little, and making it a little deeper. I wasn't sure if there would be enough air flow between the box and rear hatch though. Also I could build the box over 1 wheel well, 1 has the jack and such on it... Oh and it is tuned to 30 now. I think if the box was a little shorter it might hit the higher notes better.

If you want, you can tune @ 34hz, but I would not go too much higher for a daily listening install. But box height is not going to effect the higher notes, that has everything to do with total box design, tuning, and so on. But if you want, you can try 6.5-6.75 cube @ 34hz, that should be a good departure from your current box. Then you can see which size and tuning you prefer.

Next time, try to get a little farther away from people. Haha I have a few maiden shirts. I drove all around trying to find a good place to shoot the video, the closest house was about 1/4 to 1/2 mile away. I was on a dead end county road in the middle of nowhere. I think that I will shorten the box a little make it deeper and tune around 31-33hz @ about 6.75 cuft after displacement, i would like to keep the port area about the same.... But overall I couldn't be more happy with the sub.

June 16, 200916 yr Author And honestly I love the way this sub sounds. More punchy/accurate than my bl ever was, also it is a lot LOUDER. The more and more I play it the more and more I love it. Now I just want to see how well it will perform in the new box....
June 16, 200916 yr Author What was your old setup?1 fiblw/cooling saz 1500d. Same h/u. The box was 6.7 cuft at 32hz

They are the best sub in the market. IMO
