Real96SS Posted June 23, 2012 Report Share Posted June 23, 2012 Specs on those subs say 4.5-6 cubes per ported. Plus if your over powering them you need to make the box smaller than the max. I'm not the expert on this but I say its a possibility that the size is hurting his score. Are you talking about a guy named Mondo on youtube?

Guest Posted June 23, 2012 Report Share Posted June 23, 2012 is the wall at the B pillar? C pillar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMI CUSTOMS Posted June 23, 2012 Report Share Posted June 23, 2012 Are the subs unloading? If they aren't or getting stinky then the cubes isn't the problem.

AMI CUSTOMS Posted June 23, 2012 Report Share Posted June 23, 2012 Not nearly enough port area for numbers, double that, seriously.

dblovah51 Posted June 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2012 Ok thanks he decided he is gonna do a whole tear down and rebuild Quote 2004 trailblazer 4 FI BTL 18s (2) DC 10.0k xs power d3100s mechman 270 158.2 @41 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe X Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 10.3 square inches of port per cube is hurting most likely, since that thing is already built modding the port makes sense if feasible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
