The numbers aren't really that critical in this case so I wouldn't worry too much about it. Your port is pretty big for that volume so that's probably not helping....but by itself probably not enough to matter. Gorilla glue ***** for box building though...I know its strong as hell, but it needs moisture to activate which isn't good for the mdf and it swells as it cures which tries to push the joint open. Titebond II is the best glue for boxes. I'm not familar enough with that sub to say if you were overpowering it, but your voltage drop is not that significant so you're still feeding it a lot of power above tuning. Most subs start to distort with a lot of power when you get well above tuing. Don't forget that the 1500w rating is just thermal power handling, not mechanical and with no reference to frequency and tuning. It might be just fine in a different box though. Maybe cut down the size a little and with less port area.
