HELP! 18" ReXXX in a 2003 Saleen Mustang!

[Saleen281 10+ year member]

Hey guys so i was set up everything today in my 2003 Saleen Mustang. I put in Boston Pro 60's and Tweders in with a Alpine Iva-w205 touch screen head unit. I ran 0-gauge all through my car and my amps are UsAmps MD22 for the tweders and Boston 60's and MD2D for the ReXXX 18" sub. So i have the sub sitting in my garage. I need ideas for building a box for it. If i can do a ported box i would love anyone who has a way for it to hit and sound good. I want this to work anyway but walling it off (i need my back seats but i can take up the whole trunk).

Anyone have any ideas?

You will have to seal that ***** off. Not nearly enough room for ported imo

if going ported you'll have to do a wall...you'll need about 7 cu ft total...sealed about 4 cu ft

I hope you are planning on putting that subwoofer where your rear seats used to be! If not, good luck getting that bad boy into your trunk.

Even more sealed, XXX want huge boxes. Especially the 18.

Yeah man, a wall is your only choice really. You need a lot of box.

A 15 would be much better or 2 12 XXXs if you want to keep it in the trunk. And you're ruining a Saleen (if it is authentic) with that much weight, but your car...can't tell you what to do! Sound like it will be loud and clear though.
