It can make a difference in how loud the box is, and also what kind of car it's in.

Personally, for trunk cars, I prefer ports firing to the side and sub firing into the cabin.

I guess it would depend on the vehicle and what the rear deck looks like.

I haven't personally done any testing with stuff like that, but for a car that either doesn't have a fold-down rear seat, or has a shit ton of metal back there, upfiring might be a good option.
