Aeroport size for 8" L7's???

and shit glad i posted in the lounge LOL. could someone move this please?

Alright, so my friend finally paid me for the pair of 8" L7's I got off here a while back, so its time for me to get to building his box... They're gonna be going in his standard cab s10 off a 750.1 or comparable amp (going on a little mtx monoblock for the time being).

My question is what size aero's will I need for these? I know for my dd 1508 I used 1 3" so would 2 3" aeros work or maybe 1 4" or 5" aero? I've never been good with figuring out the math on aero's lol.

I know its gonna be a tight squeeze, so I'm gonna see how these sound in a sealed box first in about .75 ft^3 each (which I'm about to build today). I can get away with slightly bigger, so when ported after sub displacements I'm gonna have hopefully around 1.8 cubes... so once port volume is factored in i should still be in the clear for .66 ft^3 (which is minimum recommended for ported //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif and why i'm gonna use aero's)

Personally I'm thinking 1 5" would be good right?

I personally wouldn't do any less than one 5" aero. That ported box size is a little on the small side though. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

yeah i know. he really wants a ported box though, cause this is the only truck he's ever had and he's always jealous of my se's ported lol, so i told him i'd do everything i can to get him a ported box in there. but thats why im building the sealed box as well.... i know thats got plenty of space and should sound pretty good, so we're just gonna see how it turns out. i'm sure I can bump it up a bit and i can also make the box a bit wider... i know any little bit will help...

also... i see you said you wouldn't do any less than a 5".... would a 6" be better?
