I really wouldn't do subs and port up in a '99 integra hatch. You lose a ton of low end doing that. I would do sub and port back as close to the rear as possible. That's how I run subs in my '99 hatch and I have experimented with these different configurations:

sub and port facing me

sub and port facing rear

sub up port up

sub side port side

sub up port back

sub back port side

In all those, I will take sub back port back any day of the week. If you only care about being loud around 45-50hz, sub up port back works well but there is nothing below 40hz for me. Sub back port back has a nice response dropping pretty low with the hatch resonating around 30hz so it added a nice gain. I only really got this with sub and port back. When I put some expanding foam in there, this point went up to about 38hz.

I actually have a box for my two 12" SSD's that was in my trunk. It is subs and port back and the box absolutely pounds. About 4 cubes @ 32 hz. slot port.

You can easily get 4 cubes net out of the hatch area. I can get that much space and have room for my mountain bike!
