12inch Phoenix gold ti elite quick box q

I think that you have may have miscalculated your port size. I did a quick calculation and got 38hz instead of 32

If the sub is a 12", then your port looks to be 14" wide instead of 12". Manual says 2"x12".

Yes I increased the width of the port opening to match the front panel so I could use the side wall and then lengthened it to match the tuning

There’s the box in the car still have enough space to build a bigger one running a 1200rms amp off it at 1 ohm

The lengthening to 25.5" is advised for a 32hz tune, but not the widening. If you widen the port then you must also shorten it to keep the 24 square inch opening, along with the 25.5" length. But this may also give an udesired result regarding port velocity. You could just stick lengths of wood in one side to acheive the port dimensions. You could do the inside leg in two pieces for easy insertion.

I basically just want my box to play low , and Ive read that a larger box allows for lower tuning, any help with box dimensions for a lower tuned box will be greatly appreciated , it’s in a 2014 vw polo hatchback

@Buck
get with Buck. He designs enclosures and sends you a cut sheet. He has a fee, but would be well worth it.

Yeah maybe let buck take a look at what you got and trust me, he’s legit. I’ve had multiple setups in my truck and the box he designed takes the cake easily.

He designed my for me after I decided to play with the numbers on my first attempt and it did not go so well
He doesn't charge much, I would have paid 3x that what he gives you

Getting back into the hobby after 20 years going without. I think I am going through midlife crises. I Don't even like drawing attention to myself, especially at stoplights. WTF am i doing? However, If my wannabe beats turned any heads, My vehicle and I don't fit the profile and would be quickly dismissed. But when I make eye contact with anyone who zeros in on me, I get personal gratification to give them the sexy Tom Cruise head nod.

Anyway, you probably have realized by now that placing a vented or sealed enclosure that close to a wall , it will sound like shit
