mustang box

[_MstANg_ 10+ year member]

i was just thinking about my box that i will be making in a couple of months or so. I have a 95 mustang and for those of you that have seen a mustang's trunk .. their very small. I figured deminsion a couple weeks ago but fogot them lol. I think it was about 30W x 13.5(maybe 14)H x 20L. This box wouldnt be to terrible hard to build and port etc. but then i just thought about one more problem. The space that i have to put the box inside the trunk through the opening, theirs no way i could do that. I would be lucky to get a box for a 10" sub in ther much less a 12. so does this mean i will have to build the box inside the trunk? Im lookin for maximum space, so i wouldnt have much room to use a drill to drill the nails in the box on the sides or just basically assemble it all. Any suggestions on how i coudl do this?

I have built a box for my buddy's Mustange. I made it so it just barely fit...but it did. It was for an Infinity Kappa 12". It can be done. If you need, i can talk to him and get the dimensions so you have an idea. Also, you may be able to put it in through the back seat.

yea i thought about it but i think that opening is only about 11 inches maybe high. would it hurt for the sub to be facing upwards and have the side only that big?

 

[Trixter 10+ year member]

I know that the one I made the sub and port faced towards the trunk.

and you just slid it in through the back seats?

 

[Trixter 10+ year member]

Nope. Through the trunk.

alright, let me get those deminsions sometime if ya dont mind so i can play with it. u dont know by any chance how many cubic ft. it was or what it was tuned to do you? im pretty much deciding between a 12xxx or 12 ed a

I will get a hold of my guy and let you know.

go on aim....

Talked to my guy and it's 13L x 21H x 13.25D = 1.52cu'. It's tuned to 54 with a 4" port that is 4.5" long. It's for a Infinity Kappa and these are what the specs called for. Kinda high tuning but it sounded nice. You can probably make it longer to get the vol. for a larger 12 like you want.

alright, i was thinkin about doin the edesign blueprints for an ed a ... it says its 14.5H x 16L x 25W .. do you think that'll fit? i guess its worth a shot to find out. im thinkin its gona be to high by about an inch. so if i take an inch off the top and add it to the width do you think that will have any affect on the tuning?

 

[Trixter 10+ year member]

It won't effect the tuning as long as you have the correct volume.

I have a mustang too and i yes the trunks are very small as hell but i got 2 12"'s in there and all u got to do it take out the back seats and slide it trough there because thats the only way to get it in there. If u have any other questions just post back up and i will tell u

Put 4 10s in a mustang conv. 3 boxes and the centre one was 2.2 ft. net ported. Had to make it a funky shape, but they were all removable. Pic just posted under American Cars if you're interested.
