Its not like i dont know what im doing, but i need to get it right first time, as wood costs money over here in England :)

The enclosure is 8.2Ft Cubed

Enclosing 2 x DVC 3000 watt peak, 1500 watt RMS Subs @2ohmx2 (Voice Coils wired into 2)

Im going with a kurfed port design however im stuggling on where to put the port.

The enclosure will be just behind the front seats,

Im not sure whether to have a front facing port, rear port or facing up....

The subs are facing forward...

Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!

I dont want to face the ports rear or up if it will effect sound... as the boot will eventually be cut off from the rest so it wont matter if the boot is open or closed, it wont effect sound.

However, i only have a few inches to spare at the top of the enclosure, so im worried that the pressure will be a lot for the roof of the car, this may create noise :(

Designing a front port is seeming very difficult as the box is only 19" deep

in total, 34" wide, 19" deep, 34" high

If your building a wall, and sealing the front off from the back, then why would you even question putting the port in the back? It must go in the front, always when in that situation. If you are really that worried about the roof, make sure you have a layer or so of sound deadening, and when you build the wall, make sure you get expanding foam above it to create a tight fit above the box and between the roof. Have you considered aero ports to?
