i thought it would work that stupid calcualtor site lyed to me it didnt ask for a sub size tho wtf

don't blame the calculator b/c you don't know what you're doing. sub size has nothing to do with a properly build ported enclosure. if I run 3 10" subs in a 3.5 cubic ft box with a 6" aero tuned to 36hz, I can use a 15" sub in a similar box.

Oh wow this dude again. You are probably tuned to like 60 hz or some shit. I predict 18 pages.

OP, ditch the goddamn Kicker Comps and buy a pair of real subs.

You have an RD 2200, man. Use it for a pair of nice 15"s or something..

Those 6 Kickers need over 13 cubes AFTER sub & port displacement. There's no fucking way you're going to get that into the trunk of a Dodge Intrepid. MAYBE if someone builds the enclosure inside the trunk it could happen, but it'd be doubtful even then.

Don't know why I bothered typing that, though. It won't make a damn bit of difference...

pair of ssd 18's would sound good on that, new motor for 2010

I just realized those Kickers will need around 13 cubes AFTER sub & port discplacement. Good luck getting that in the trunk of a Dodge Intrepid...

Look at the SSA Icon, Incriminator Audio Death Row, DC Audio Level 4 and the Fi Q.

Garbage. Pay someone to build you a proper enclosure based on the subwoofers you choose to run.

That would be one of the subwoofers I recommended, would it not? You'd need the 1 ohm dvc model.

You may need to run the 12" Icon, though. A pair of the 15"s will need between 6 & 8 cubes...
