Posted August 18, 201114 yr So after being bassless for months now my FI BL 12 is on its way. I drive a 240sx now so i do not have much trunk room, I need help with a box design that would be optimal for the sub. Thanks for the help in advance.Trunk Dimensions: Height Sloping from 20" - 17" at the back. Length: 15". Width: 36". Simplicity is key since i do not have access to many tools.
August 18, 201114 yr That turns out to be about 4.6 cubes gross, you need to determine how big of a box you can fit through your trunk opening, or can you fold your back seats and fit it there?
August 18, 201114 yr btw the BL loves port area, my 12 has 55.5 square inches of port and it is very happy in its home haha. My previous box had only 30 sq inches and now it really sounds amazing with more port. Edited August 18, 201114 yr by trod2902

Also with the cut sheets im not sure if i can fit the 17" length, ill have to do a second measure.
August 19, 201114 yr All woofers love port area, there is a minimum amount of port area needed for every ported woofer.
August 19, 201114 yr The minimum port area i calculated was 30, and i almost doubled it to great success.
