go measure the height width and depth of your trunk and then multiply the numbers.

x2, 4 cubic feet should fit.

i had a 6 cubic foot box in my car, and that was after displacement of sub and port //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

or if you do it like that. ^^^^^

how does that sound with the subs up like that?

if you do it like that you should just face the subs forward too, and try to seal around the box from the trunk.

i agree 100%

just make sure to seal EVERYTHING

Sweet deal. I am also wondering how up firing subs sound? That was an option of mine too.

I had 4 cu.ft. in the trunk of my cav. 2 12's facing the rear and it would only go in thru the front. I could have fit bigger but the dimensions would have to have been exact.

that was about 2 years ago. it sounded pretty good and was pretty loud too. I think i metered a hair over 144 with that set up, which is respectable. all of that has since been swapped with what is in my sig now. sounds hella better now.

if you fire subs up under rear deck like i did make sure you do something with rear deck. that thing jumped around like crazy back then.

oh and i had to cut the car to get that box in the car //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif why not just build it in the trunk??

not impressed with the hair over 144. i metered at 145.3 outlaw on dash with 1 12" with the port and sub facing backward... and a 144.3 legal on dash.

and i agree why not just build it in the car?

we thought it would fit beforehand lol

where we cut is covered by plastic so no big deal. if you look at my 2nd pics, if you look at those plastic pieces when i fold down my back seat that is where we cut. it is now covered with deadener so you would really never know //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
