Skar audio VD-8 question

[Drizzydrake1]

I am looking at purchasing two Skar audio VD-8's and I don't know what size box I should get as far as as airspace within the box (Since Skar so kindly doesn't list this spec on their website), I am probably going with a sealed enclosure. If anyone has worked with these before I would appreciate your help!

Currently running one in .75@35hz. It is a temp replacement for my Alpine Type R 8 . My alpine surround separated from the cone. Crutchfield replaced it but gonna go with something else. Running the skar until I find what I want. Skar seems it can't handle the power like the alpine can (600 watts). As far as the lows, it's kind of a tie. Loudness,alpine gets the edge. Friend let me hold it til I find something I want. He said he would sale it to me if I wanted it but it's not the sub I'm looking for. Oh yeah, it's behind the seat of a regular cab truck. Sub fowars,port to the side
