[QUOTE="Buck, post: 8873121, member: 591582"] With 1/4 wave and tuning low, your vehicle is a resonator itself, like if you think about from your rear hatch or back of the box traveling front to the front windshield or dash, that itself is a port or t-line. You have a high pressure wavefront trying to resonate the distance of your vehicle. It depends on orientation, but say just viewing your vehicle with a ported box for those, the distance from the rear port opening to the front of the dash has 1/4 wave properties to it. Possibly with how short your vehicle may be, it could be advantageous to have the rear ports all the way at the rear of the vehicle to peak lower, too. With walls this big, you can more easily see how your entire vehicle is a single enclosure, including your cabin. You can actually measure from the back of the wall roughly to idk where you sit or front windshield/dash area to see what the vehicle might try to naturally resonate to, like if it was a transmission line.
