    Oh I will even make a video after i'm done and put it up on youtube like everyone else does lol.

    Just one last question:
    Should I tune to manufacturer's recommended (40Hz) or should I tune to what I like (lows probably 30Hz)

    Thanks so much guys your awesome.

    I feel dumb lol

    I just ment like at 42Hz or somethin my xplod really shakes the car but at 30Hz it still plays it obviously it just doesn't shake. You know what I mean?

    Dang I'm having some real trouble building the box. Cuz every time I add stuff in a gotta make the depth bigger which changes the port size and it just keeps getting screwed up.

    Here's what I have so far. It's a sketchup document. I would appriciate it if someone could finish it. I'm about to just pay someone to finish this for me I already spent over an hour on this.

    What do you keep having to change?

    I would say go more around 34hz, but thats your call.

    Well like when I put in the vent it changes the volume so I increase the depth and then I have to increase the length of the vent which changes the volume so I increase the depth and so on...

    Actually I have read it, several times lol.

    I think I have it all finished. It's not perfect but It's pretty close. I want you guys to give me the final okay before I start the build.

    Here's the sketchup document.

    It's about 3.54 Cubic Feet with a port length of about 44" I believe.

    they sell a 45* piece, id put one in every corner of the port. like where the port bends, and along the back wall.

    If it's just for support I'm probably not going to do it because the subs I'm putting in aren't gonna shake much. If it helps with the sound or something I will. So should I really?

    Google Sketchup Version

    Like this?

    With 180* bends 45's in the corners will greatly help the air flow.
