Posted May 2, 200718 yr Hey guys. My first post, so be easy... I just bought a '90 CRX and need some wang for it. I just upgraded to a 160amp alternator and I'm in the process of upgrading the big 3 to 1/0. I have a hifonics BXI1606D and have built a typical CRX box (29 x 29 x 14) with 4 - 4" x 17" aeroports out the back. I have 2 kicker s12L5's that I was going to use, but I just can't get the 18 BL out of my head! I would want it configured as a daily driver, dual 2's, and with the cooling option (which includes the P Chamfer) and Flatwind.Now for the questions:Would the 18 BL work in that box (5.47 cu/ft tuned to 36.5 Hz, if my calculations are correct)? If so, Should I go with a BXI2006D instead or the BXI1606DD? Would it Wang?!?!Thanks in advance!

May 2, 200718 yr As others have said, daily driving it will work ok...if your looking for farting/burping i'd look into smaller subs.
