Not sure, but you'd look like a dumb*** unless you took the backseat out and somehow molded the box in with the rest of the car. Simply setting a box in the back seat looks stupid.

Lmfao the backseat is coming out it will be molded and the rear deck will have a hole cut into it to let the sound come into the cab

When you take the backseat out is there just an empty hole between the trunk and the cab or is there bracing of some sort?

Its a hole that will be covered by the box sealing it off

anytime you have subs facing in different directions, you are going to have cancellation. Subs must unload off of the same loading wall, or there WILL be loss of output.

Why not build one box for all 8 12's? You could have them all facing up

 

[Nutdawg651]

Because its a trunk of a car

So you are saying you are going to put subs in the trunk, but then seal the trunk off with the box in a back seat. Good luck. Please make a build log, I could use some laughs.

For ur info i said seal the 4 subs in the backseat off and cut a hole in the rear deck to let the sound come in from the trunk u kno like a port

i'm sorry but it would be louder with 4 12s in a wall ported or 6 12s in a wall sealed rather than 8 sealed in two different locations. Why would it not work ? Because they are loading off different locations one subsonic wave will reach its destination faster than the other and reflect back smashing into other waves and when you have sound waves fighting each other that's when you start seeing severe diminishing returns with the cone area your trying to run. Not to mention sloppy and muddy bass.

How about 2 quality 12s in the proper ported box in the trunk facing forward sealed off?
