AmericanLegend Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 You have to draw the box up before you build it. That way, you know how much air is inside it and the port. Or, you can pay somebody to design a box for you and you just go of their specifications when building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 you can message ram designs on here, or 412 cvx, or decaf, or ray. there are tons of other ones but those are the ones that i can think of off the top of my head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDWSTBoom Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 Download Torres box calculator and just play around with it. Main things for tuning are for a slot port you want between 12 and 16 inches square per cubic foot of box air space.
