New build opinions

[ROCNROLL]

Currently running 4 b2 audio rage 8's powered by rockford 2500bd in a supercrew f150. Thinking about switching to 4 dd audio 2508, or 3 jl audio shallow tw5 13.5, or 4 jl audio tw3 10/12(depending on air space), or dd audio shallow sl 600 10/12. May change the amp if I need to. Any thoughts or opinions on the new direction I'm thinking about.

Sometimes we have to make sacrifices to get what we need

There's likely not much of anything you're going to do to get audible gains without figuring out a way to make more airspace for subs. Even just shoehorning too much cone area in too small box and attempting to brute force it with power and EQ will be impractical as you physically will not have enough space to mount the kind of subwoofer that could accomplish this.
