Waldo129 Posted February 4, 2012 Report Posted February 4, 2012 Well Im starting my box today for my BTL 18 and I need some suggestions... I have my max dimensions set up at the top and I know thats right, but what about the aero ports? I tried plugging in the dimensions of a 6" aero port I found on partsexpress.com and I just don't know if its right. Ill be using 2 of them, and they will be inside of the box. Any suggestions would be great! Thanks!

SnowDrifter Posted February 4, 2012 Report Posted February 4, 2012 (edited) Wait... You are using BOTH aero ports and slot ports? I'd say pick one or the other. Edit: I'd do double baffle and bracing too.

Im just using 2 aero ports, or whatever can get me around 32hz. Any suggestions?

Waldo129 Posted February 4, 2012 Author Report Posted February 4, 2012 Here ill think i messed up on the last one... Is this the right selection for 2 6" aeros?

Im just using 2 aero ports, or whatever can get me around 32hz. Any suggestions? Do you have any room for external port length? What vehicle is this in (are these your max dimensions or do you have more room)? And how will the subs / port be positioned?

Its going into a 02 Civic Si hatchback (not many people have these cars, let alone have a btl 18 in one lol). And yes sadly those are my max dimensions. I could maybe have half the 2 aero ports sticking out of the top, but I don't have much room until it touches the roof of the car. Ill upload a pic of the trunk with my old BL 15 to show you what I have to work with Quote 02 Civic Si Stock Alt Kicker 0 gauge wire Shuriken SK-BT80 Battery JL Audio J2 320.4 Planet Audio BB 2400.1 Fi BTL 18 ufo motor My 02 Si Build! http://www.stevemead...__fromsearch__1
Waldo129 Posted February 4, 2012 Author Report Posted February 4, 2012 Heres my old BL 15. The box was pretty huge, around 4.5 cubes I think...

RAM_Designs Posted February 5, 2012 Report Posted February 5, 2012 You'll be fine if you run a pair of 6" aeros. If 7.13ft^3 is your gross volume, you should easily be able to get 6ft^3 after all displacements.
