Thanks all for the kind words, and man after a day of bumpin it I can say it really does what its supposed to, it flexes my roofline of the cab on top like an inch up and down, and knocks stuff out of my center console on some songs and I did not even put the 45's in it yet or try the PVC on the port inlets! all I can say is 80...YOU DA MAN! here is what I used for the gasket, just push it tightly into the corners so it seals good and clean the dust off the edges before you stick it down. I am going to try it laying down for the hell of it and also with the ports up, right now its got the ports to the driver side but its kind of tight against the door, like 4-5 inches, it will likely sound best ports up I think. As for the board, I got it at H.D. and it sells for about 50 bucks with tax in CA so give or take that much....Thanks again!
