Should I get more Aeroports?

[nourkah 10+ year member]

I have a US Amps De-1000 pushing a 15" XXX in a 4^3cuft boz with two 4" Aero's. I can't remember what it's tuned to, lower 30's if I remember correctly.

I hit a 140.8 in a local competition. I have no extra batteries or caps.

First of all is that good at all?

The real question is should I add another two 4" Aero's. Would the extra port space affect it that much? SQ? SPL?

what vehicle?

It was in a 95 Grand Am GT. That's the car I did the 140.8 in.

I just got a '98 Oldsmobile Intrigue, but haven't gotten the stuff in it yet.

If you stick the ports in the box, wouldnt that affect net size? Wouldnt adding to the port size also require a noticeably longer port as well?

Aeroports look like that (mine are a little different).

You can adjust the length of the tube in all four easily to change the length overall and adjust the frequency.

The extra two ports would take up a little more room, but it wouldn't be a huge amount and I could take that into consideration when i readjust the frequency. ..

not worth it... especially taking into consideration the size of the box

I hope you meant 4 cu ft^3 NET

if you add two more 4" aero's to your set up, I would expect the tuning frequency to jump like 20-30hz keeping everything the same length as original. I bet you dont have enough port length (maximum of 17" with standard aeroport tubing + flared ends) to make it work... 3 aero's though, that may be better. if you are tuned to lower 30's, add a single aero the same length, that should bump tuning up a bit and give you a better frequency. play around with bass box pro and get shit all set up //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif good luck!
