badasschevy Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 its time for a change. this will be going in my 98 chevy single cab. i had a lvl 4 12 in a 2 cu ft tuned to 35 htz console. the sub was downfirng with a front firing port. the new set up will be 4 lvl 2 8's being powered by a dc 2k.both will be around 2.5 cu ft tuned between 35-37 htz. the first design is subs down and 2 3" psp ports firing up.i'd love to do a 6" psp but i dont want the port sticking up out the top. will 2 3" psp's be enough or will i have port noise? the psp ports will be 11.25 long not 11.75. option 2: 2.5 cu ft with a slot port firing up. 36.25 sq" of port i'm also worried i might have some loading issues with either one.

badasschevy Posted February 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 im about to start a cosole build myself in my 91 but i have a bench so my box will lay over the seat i ditched the 60/40 bench in favor of bucket seats about 4 years ago. i got tired of having my nuts hugging the steering wheel. cant really fit to much behind the seats of the chevy's/gmc's.

badasschevy Posted February 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 I've always had good luck with side loaded ports in single cabs. the issue with that is my amps will be on either side of the console. with the old set up it got pretty damn loud. i'm trying to find my memory stick to get the picture off of it. if thats your truck in your avatar i wanna see more of it yes,that is my truck. just did the solid axle swap on it about 2 months ago. heres some pics heres a link to the build. http://www.fullsizechevy.com/forum/general-discussion/projects-builds-restorations/457922-time-ditch-ifs.html im about to start a cosole build myself in my 91 but i have a bench so my box will lay over the seati ditched the 60/40 bench in favor of bucket seats about 4 years ago. i got tired of having my nuts hugging the steering wheel. cant really fit to much behind the seats of the chevy's/gmc's.well the way im building mine it will be able to move itfor those tender nights (the only plausible reason anyone would use a bench) i'm married, those nights of doing it in a vehicle are over.

korey_hofer Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 I would use more than 2 3'' ports that is not a lot of port at all. 2 4's might work Quote previously known as wenn_du_weinst aka fucking internet coward supreme.

badasschevy Posted February 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 (edited) I would use more than 2 3'' ports that is not a lot of port at all. 2 4's might work thats what i was thinking. the issue i'm having is they need to be 17-18" long and i would have to have a bend in them to get the lenght and they might hit the motors of the subs. what about my slot port idea?talking to Rusty i'll have some loading issues with the sub closet to the port. thats kind of why i have the box on the smaller side to hopefully have more control. each sub will have roughly .625 cu ft of airspace and he recommends .7-.8 ported.
