Couple of Plans with Questions

[trewyn15]

Hey guys, I have the following in my trunk:

I am wanting to add two SA-8's on the sides with how it sits now, and the black box (CD Changer), will be moved when I do so. I am wondering if this will be enough room, for either a ported or sealed box. It will have about a 15" depth and 13" width and height. I hope that is enough information for what I am looking for.

Also, I am looking to possibly invert mount the SA-8's, or is this just a terrible idea with those subs and the type-r right there.

My last question is about wiring. I am looking to get 12 GA speaker wire for my 6.5's up front that are going to be at 150W RMS. Will that be big enough wire?

Also, I am looking to get a 0 GA wire upgrade. I am looking at Knu Konceptz but I'm not really sure where else has good wire for a good price.

Also, about how many watts is 0 GA wire good for?

Thanks in advance to everyone that answers!

Well some say not to use different size subs, but as long as each of those 8's is in the same size box....then it can work. (Don't know if you wanted the 8's in separate boxes or both in 1 box)

If it fits then invert em, why not.

For comp speakers 12 gauge is fine, you can actually use a little smaller if you want, 16 or 14 gauge.

I don't recall how many watts 0 gauge will handle, but it's a lot. And Knu is a fine brand.

thanks for the quick response, i will probably go with smaller and cheaper wire then haha.

just curious, would it be bad if they were in seperate boxes? I was hoping one on each side in seperate boxes.

also with inverted subs, would I go with a sealed or ported box or would there not be a difference?

why not just build a new enclosure and design it for three SA10"s?

I personally am not a fan of different sized subs, but to each their own.

i could do that but i want to keep the type-r as it's already amped and everything and hits pretty hard, I just saw some good priced SA-8's and got to thinking, if there is no real problem with different sized subs I was thinking I would go for it.
