[QUOTE="trumpet, post: 8447013, member: 628688"] Keep in mind the lower the port is tuned the longer it needs to be. You may need to adjust the net enclosure volume a bit larger for a 27 Hz tune as opposed to mid 30s as the port will take away volume. I have a 2001 SL2 and my enclosure is 3 cubes net, 2 cubes gross with a slot port tuned to 36 Hz. It's facing into the cabin and pushed up against the back seat pass-through opening. I doubt I could have fit a larger enclosure without making it a 2 piece clamshell design that bolts together inside the trunk. I put most of my equipment in the spare tire well and currently the trunk is useless for hauling anything. My point is you will not be doing 2 Hippo 12s in this car without an extreme box build taking up essentially the entire trunk.
