Do you think Ill lose much going from 2 12's ported, to 3 12's sealed?

The title pretty much says it, I'm going from 2 JBL W12Gti's in a ported box tuned to about 32 hz to 3 in a sealed box. But I will be giving them more power as I'm going from an earthquake that claimed 3k watts(yeah right), to the new 3250.1v2 from RD audio, Ill also be going from 1.5 to 1 ohm resistance with the third sub. I'm going sealed because I just dont like how loose my subs sound on certain types of music where I prefer the bass to be more tight and responsive.

I never got my stuff metered before but it seemed pretty loud, Im hoping to get similiar if not more loud with this new setup but also tighter. Anyone here with experience have any thoughts on this?

WGTis sealed are quite nice //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
