On1's 97 Acura 3.0cl DD build

[on1wheel01 10+ year member]

Well after hours of calculations and lots of ?'s to many of you guys(thanx for all the help btw). I finally started the cutting, I used a nice big table saw out at my old bosses shop. The Sub is a DD 9515 d motor. Amp is a Alphasonik pma1200da. Box is about 5.5 cubes before sub port and bracing. Tuning is at 36 hz. I've got 3 4" ports cut at 12.5" long. Here are a few pics still working on her as we speak. It will al be squeezed into the trunk of a 97 Acura 3.0cl. Should beat like crazy I hope, it's gonna be ports forward through ski port and sub back. It is all sealed off as it's a tight fit. If I dont like the sounds I may tear it apart and put both firing forward sealed off. Sadly my back seat does not fold down, and walling or anything like that is not an option as I have my daughter with me from time to time. More pics to come as the work goes on. This is my 3rd box and im pretty happy with it so far.

Ok well guys it is pretty loud but not what I think it should be. Do you guys think if I changed it to a slot port sub back port back it would be louder?

Or should I turn it around and have sub and ports back with the pvc tubes?

In the trunk it would probably sound better port and sub back but looks sturdy!

lol yea i know i had a buddy cut it out with a jig saw i have since then smoothed it out, after adjusting the amp it sounds good. Can't turn it past half gain or it pops my circuit breaker. I need a bigger alt for sure. But man I just wonder if i alter the port would it sound louder. And man this thing flexes the trunk and roof like crazy

Well the box is getting redone this weekend im trimming off 4" on the depth, should make it so i can get her in and out of my friggin trunk. Loosin some cubes but i'll still have 3.5 and dd says 3 or more. I'm also making her into a slot port both firing to the rear(and i may try turning it around and fire both forward. we shall see. And I am pondering trimming off 6" to be able to get my spare tire out if needed. Drops me down to 3.2 cubes though.

I ran a good 1900-2000 rms on the alt without dimming. Hc1800, big 3, and 0 gauge.

sub rear / ports rear will get you alot better results.

I had better results with port rear in the CL

My friend Jordan ran a DD 9515F in 3 cubes @ 34Hz in the trunk of his neon and it was loud as hell...off of one Sundown 1500D. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
