I personally would redesign the box differently. I would be glad to help just give me the external max dimensions. I would say lay some deadner today.

I vote 4!! GL man!! Seems like a nice build, just need to get it perfected. Why not but some bracing on the backside on the baffles? Might help with the flex. But either way man GL with it all!!

hhaha i might try it if i get my buddy to come help. and im very limited with taking up space in the box thats why i went for addin threaded rod.

Here are some pics of one of my first builds from the late 90's.... I was able to hit 148.6 off of 1000 rms from the Phoenix Gold M100's......

Damn that amp looks OLD!

those amps were made in 1992. Dinosaurs of the audio world...There were 3 M100's and an M25. 2 M100's for the subs and one for the door speakers, and the M25 for the rear fill.....

heres one i came up with, would be 6 cubes ported at 32hz with 4 pvc pipes. and with subs and ports in i have .9 of a cube to add as much bracing as i need.

hahah thats alright man. and they are beautiful

You can easily break a 140 with two of them, you might need more than 1K but you will be close, it's all in the enclosure. Port area is your friend ;)

alright, well thats my goal at the moment is a 145 with 2 10's but trying to stay under 1000 watts. :).

the design im drawing up at the moment has 18sq ins of port per cube. should that be good??

That's going to be difficult with a daily driver ie. no modifications on the car itself.
