it really depend on the sub you're going to be using, the difference in volume, could kill a sub or make them sound way better.

to measure volume in a fiberglass enclosure get allot of packing peanut and put then stick them in a large enough trash bag and stuff the trash bag in the enclosure and fill it with the peanut till the enclosure is full. then measure the amount of packing peanuts in a card board box where the volume is know. and calculate how much packing peanuts takes to fill it up and how many times. that will give you a very accurate enclosure volume.
