Do you want it to be louder, or do you care more about accuracy?

"Sound and performance" could mean anything.

The farther away the subs the better the sound

Ported enclosure will be much louder

And YES the type of vehicles is big contributing factor for enclosure type and location

However you happen to have one best and easy vehicle to deal with
