Sub/Port Alignment in Integra

[Psyence 10+ year member]

Im building a dual ported box for 2 12W7's in a buddys Integra...

I was planning going sub/port facing rear, but head that sub back, port up sounds good too..

Which way is ideal?

I am not sure if the Integra is a hatchback or not. If it is trunk mounted then I would not have the sub or the port facing up, because it would fire directly into the trunk lid and you will have some extra trunk flexing and some possible cancellation. Firing both the sub and port towards the tailights usually yields the best results for most folks. If it is a hatchback then you can do either way.

i'm the guy who it's being made for, it's a hatchback

wonder though if it shoudl be parallel with the window in the back or with the rear tail lights?

so either

1. | (| sub angle

2. / (/ sub angle

1. | being the tail lights

2. / being the glass

then shouldn't matter if slotted ports are inside or outside of the subs.

My friend has two sealed GTO1220's in his '00 LS. They are facing towards the back and it nices for sealed. So ported, face subs towards back IMO.
