meh...I dont know. Have you talked to scott? What if this sub likes 7-8 cubes...there is NO WAY you can get 8 cubes in that trunk without glassing it. Personally I woulda went with 1 15" or 2 12"s

I'll be a daily driver, so I should be alright. I've talked to scott a bit about it, I should be pretty good. Didn;'t kennys box give each 18in btl about 8 cubes? This sub is supposed to be between the q and the btl, so 6 SHOULD be decent, im sure it wouldnt mind more, but this might hav to do for a few months //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Just to give you an Idea...Do you remember Kenny Pollocks first setup with his SX 18". He had to glass the tire well out just to get enough room. and his car is a FULL SIZE LUXUARY CAR. Also take into accout, you are going to want at least 70sq. inches of port....thats a slot port that is 15x4.6". So add in all of your displacements, port and sub, and ther is probably no way you could get 7 cubes or maybe even 6 cubes...Right now, looks like your best bet might be to go sealed.

Heres my latest idea.

Since my back seats fold down, couldnt I have the sub reverse mounted into the cabin, and the port on the same side? All facing the cabin?

I don't want to turn into another Kenny here //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif ( No offense to him ), I just dont have the ability to do anything crazy lol.

I would rather not downgrade to a 15in, but if I would have to, //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif 18's are so cool

He already bought the sub //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

Man I still dont see it working.

 

[Megalomaniac 5,000+ posts]

what if he goes aero?

 

[NoLimit 10+ year member]

I'm sure I could message scott ( I bought it around 5, according to Fi;s website they dont start a sub until the day after its purchased, if purchased after 12pm, I could always email him and see if I could get a 15, but I would really rather not lol )

OPTIMISM?

 

[Chevyaudio 5,000+ posts]

well...the only way I see him doing it would be like...Sub inverted, and 4 external 6 inch aeros firing into the cabin...LOL

why dont you talk to scott and see what kind of space this beast wants.

before resorting to downgrading to a 15"
