[QUOTE="sexiewasd, post: 8516442, member: 604169"] Ok first step if your considering ported is to get a RTA app for your phone. Take your sub in the sealed box outside off the ground away from any walls and play pink noise at low volume and take a screenshot with the RTA app about the same distance away as it will be in the car, then put it back in your car and do the same at the same volume from the driver's seat. The difference between the two readings is your cabin gain. You can use that information to decide how you want the ported box tuned. You can tune it to the peak frequency for maximum volume, or tuned to flatten the frequency response. The RTA app can also help you to find the best position for the sub in your car. [/QUOTE]
