box for 2 hdc3 12's

does this sound like a loud box that could stand up to around 5kw daily?

4.25 cubes, 3 4" REAL aero ports tuned around 35-36hz. double baffle front, back, left and right plates. 2 dowel rods going up and down, one steel rod in between subs, one in middle of box going back to front, one in the middle of ports (they will be in like a 3 triangle type deal lol) fiber glass resin on the inside and those threaded locking screws to hold the subs in.

sound like a loud box? this is for a trunk car BTW. lakota, thor any improvements i can make on this design? power will eventually be 2 gp3ks one for now tho.

You could tune it a little higher, 38-40 maybe even higher if its not just daily.

its just daily, the one we have now is around the same specs just a slot and no bracing and peaks around 35 and plays almost perfectly flat to 40 sumthin hz so i think ittle be fine tuned like that and i can always shorten the ports.

they would be to long, seems like 3 would have no noise and be fine. ive seen loud setups use two 6" for 2 15's and do a 150 daily at the headrest.

I have tuned at 36 hz and I do fine. I'm nervous about tuning to 38 or 40 hz.

The aqs like very high tuning. Dont be affraid to tune it high. 36-40 seems to be the sweet spot.

yeah they get loud for me. Hell I know they like high tuning but 40hz was too high for my liking, I was even debating about making it 36hz but I made a good choice.

if does he has to make the box bigger if he wants to stay at the tuning he wants

but i am with the other guys usually your car peaks 10hz higher than your box tuning so if your tuning at 36 your peaking at 46. thats some cars now not all cars some other cars are different but thats how mine is.
