EclipseChris Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 I can't remember the port measurements but the cubic foot is (Bottom set) 2.7 cubic feet (Top set) approximately 1.8 cubic feet. Interesting. My only advice is; don't be a dick. There is so much knowledge to be obtained from this forum and the people who inhabit it. If your a jerk they will reject you, if your nice you will be the next one of them. Quote i resolve to be a nicer moderator. Tercel build R.I.P. Eclipse build Old New V-Dub My feedback.

Torquemaster69 Posted March 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 stay on the forum bro. you'll start to realize after a while why you shouldve done an actual wall facing forward instead of back and used a bigger port(s). eh.....I mainly did it the way I did because I wanted to keep my back seats.. The Dodge Nitro's rear area isnt really that big and I went the bare minimum on the cubic foot but still wanted big sound. While I will be entering into SPL Comps.....it wont be an actual competition vehicle Quote I'm not shy, I'm just hiding how awesome I am so I don't intimidate you. 4 DVC 15" Lanzar Heritage Subwoofers 2 Soundstorm Labs 2600.2 Amplifiers 2 Yellow Top Optima Batteries 1 8 Farad Soundstream Capacitor 12 Inch Motorized Flipdown Screen Black Suede Roofline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see....I don't know about building a new box though yet. Alittle too expensive for me right now...lol.

No you weren't, i only said that because people are trying to give you advice and trying to help you understand and you seem to be hard shelling it. When we say walls with subs and port forward are better performing its because that is the case no doubt about it. We want to help you get the most out of your setup because that is what we do with our own. The box with the different size chambers and the (what looks to be) tiny port is not doing your system justice. Your not being a dick, if you were you'd be very popular already.

I'm going to have to ask my buddy about the port sizes because he is the one that did the measurements for them. I really don't want to build a new box because I put so much time and effort into building this one....lol. If I am going to be doing any changes, I will most likely just attempt to take this one apart at certain points and rebuild from those points *Edit* I forgot to mention that I made this box also to be totally removable as one piece if I ever decide to get rid of the Nitro and I can sell the box itself Edited March 21, 2011 by Torquemaster69 Quote I'm not shy, I'm just hiding how awesome I am so I don't intimidate you. 4 DVC 15" Lanzar Heritage Subwoofers 2 Soundstorm Labs 2600.2 Amplifiers 2 Yellow Top Optima Batteries 1 8 Farad Soundstream Capacitor 12 Inch Motorized Flipdown Screen Black Suede Roofline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
30Hz.wav Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 Nice build, for a first build. Since you need to save up the funds, you should play with this setup for a while, then later on think about getting it facing forward, and sealing it off from the back. but nice job, everything looks proper...
