Sub placment will not make a drastic change from one position to the next. Placing it behind the port wall would be optimal. But you could place it in the center if you choose.

my initial thought was to center it with the rear port wall, but it's not my box.

i measured in on paper but it wasnt exact, so i assume he just tossed the circle there for joy

okay imma center it, and cut it in about 2 hours when i get back home, still got 1 more class to go, ill be sure to get some pictures,

first time using a jiz saw... should i drill a hole first and stick the blade into the hole and start from there?

put in right inbetween the port and the right side of the box.

Yep it's a lot easier than dropping the blade slowly in to the wood to form the cut.

Yeah, put the opening where ever you want it, If there is any difference you wont be able to tell. And yes drill a hole first and then put the blade into the hole.
