[QUOTE="arbita1, post: 7282113, member: 631965"] I was toying around with it last night. There is a cubby in the trunk (where the A/C evaporator and blower used to reside, it's now removed). People have mounted a box in this space and have had good results. There are direct vents into the cabin, so the bass will travel through the vents into the cabin and from what I understand it is better to have the bass coming in front of you rather than behind. (Or so I've read.) I can fit an 8" subwoofer in the space with a .28 cuft sealed box. (I would be using the cubby itself as the box.) The doors are already packed with the 6 1/2" Focals, so there is no way I could do anything else with that. Boston Acoutics G108 recommends a .3 cuft enclosure. So I'm thinking I could use this (maybe with some stuffing). The thing is, I already have an amp I want to use. It's 150w@4ohms and 300w@2ohms. The BA G108's are 200watt RMS and they come in single and dual coil. So do I under power the single coil with 150watts or do I over power the dual (parrallel wired for 2 ohms) with 300 watts?
