My next set up I'm looking to do 2cu.ft sealed...that should be plenty sealed for two.....
min is .65 an max is 1.0 for a ported box
for a combined total of 1.5 for total air space in the box, now idk if that includes sub displacement or not.
now i forget what poly fill does, is it used to add or take away air space? thanks for the advice guys really appreciate it

My buddy had a sport trac in highschool this might be an option for you, he had a ported box built to go in the 1/3 section of the backseat ported with 1 RF t2 15" that thing slammed ! You could get a 15" re you can feed that 2000watt hifonics to

This was 2 Memphis p2 10's my dad had in his truck that sounded awesome, just didn't fit to well! Now he has 1 mtx shallow mount 12 in a pioneer shallow mount box that fits perfect, doesn't sound that bad either... But my 2 jl w12's will put it to shame any day
