Hello, i'm sorry for my bad english!

I just bought new alpine swr12d4 sub, i find some sub box and put sub in it. But those volume is more than recommended(1.25-1.50 cu. ft.). This box volume is about 2.1cu.ft,.

So, what do you think? Left it in this box or look for another?

Leave it in box. The cu. ft. for that sub in a ported box is 1.0 - 2.0 cu ft. That box for the sub is a little big but rather ideal.

Thanks.

Inside of the box is filled with acustic foam(http://www.auralex.com/gallery/images/wg_2.jpg). So, that there is a need? Without it, bass not be stronger?

It's gonna trick your subs into thinking they are in a bigger box. In your case, it might not be a good idea.
