I'm pretty sure sub up/port back is best. you could probably get above 150 with 1 12 and more power, especially in the kick

You should have chose the festiva, if the car in your sig is what you drive.

To each his own. My trunk is bigger then the whole festiva. = more bump

Knew a guy who had a Solo X 18 walled in a Festiva. The sub itself was almost as big as the whole front of the wall.

I had I bought one a couple of months after I got my license just to mess around with. I already had the Integra so I didn't want to drop a lot of money into so I had a single 8'' off 100rms and it bumped. I would do one 18'' sub up, port back, 8cuft tuned low. 2kw and that should be a nice sounding setup in the upper 140s closing in on 150. It peaked low if I remember correctly sub up port back.

Car was amazing. No one believes it but Festivas are a true joy to drive. Peppy and I still managed 35mpg. Would be higher but I only had the 4spd compared to the 5spd.

But go ahead and fab up a nice alt bracket so you can get some real power flowing through the thing because the stock 40 or so amps doesn't go too far.

Eventually got bored and decided to move on to this............ Still miss the Festiva though. My insurance went down overall with the Festiva on the plan haha.

nice looking festiva,,i found two peaks for my festiva when i had a wall 44Hz and 63Hz, sub up port up box all the way to the back was 61-62Hz, sub up port to the divers side box all the way back was between 61and 63 Hz,sub back port back seemed to be 52Hz or so,,,,and i have a ohio gen in it so i have a pretty good power supply
