2 18's in trunk???

I have a 91 Lincoln towncar and have wondered if it would be possible to put 2 18's in the trunk. It seems big enough, but with the usable space, I'm not sure it would work. I want to run 2 obsidian 18's off a 1700-2000rms amp. Possibly a hifonics Brutus series. My usable space is 26"H X 29"D X 43"W. I know it doesn't seem big enough by the measurements. I'm on mobile so I can't use the Torres calculator to figure it. Also, the obsidians recommend 5-7ft^3 for ported. From what I've read, they can also be in a sealed box. If it will work in ported, I plan on inverting the subs. So can anyone tell me if its possible?

I want to see this if you can. Maybe if you fiberglass the trunk and make the box un-removable. Inverting the subs would look sick too.

Edit: one 18 is difficult enough lol, let alone two, but your vehicle has a pretty big trunk

2 18's? might as well wall the car off. unless you plan on cutting some serious metal out of the trunk to let the bass into the cabin, its not really worth it

I know one 18 will work for sure. I had a 94 Chrysler Lhs and ran a mayhem 18 in a 10ft^3 after displacement. And the box would

be built smaller since I'd be running more than rated power. The measurements I gave is just usable space, the trunk is actually bigger than that. Not taller just deeper and wider. Its just the way the trunk is designed, that's all I have for a box to sit properly. Also, in a sealed box its recommended for a 3.5-5ft^3 box.

why dont you just use 15's or something? that would be kind of less difficult to deal with. just cause you have big woofers doesnt mean you'll be loud. if theres no space for the air to move, its all just wasted energy

i guarantee 2 12s in the right now sealed from the trunk port forward subs forward will be louder. see thorshammers builds on here or on youtube

just my advice
