Without the measurements on everything, I don't know what shape the box is in. I'd have to know external dims of the box, and EXACTLY if that port is halved in the back or not.

Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.

i posted the externals of the box earlier in the thread, and im going to say for sure yes its halved in the back. from me looking at it i'm confident it is.

Driving my 2008 Dodge Ram 2500 MEGA cab with the 5.7 hemi.

Hifonics BRZ 2400.1D @ .5 ohm

Two Kinetic 1400 batteries ( soon to have XS power under hood )

Tsunami 1/0 Awg wire throughout truck.

Stock Infinity 7 speaker system ( Junk ) soon to be replaced, probably all Alpine.

Exterior: 17"Dick cepek rims with 33" Toyo MT tires

Bushwacker fender flares

Magnaflow true duel exhaust

LED tail lights with Projector headlights

Plasti-dip fun coming soon!

oh dear lol. have him build you a new box. and tie down the one you have

Just say no to Ground Pounder Customs.

More box builds

some cars do over 170db with one sub, so clearly my two 12"s can do that in my car, with my knowledge too! look out bitches!

I'm with captain stupid.

tempted to just take the time and build a PROPER box for my 2 15's and just enjoy them. lol

Well there is a problem here, you said earlier that the port section went back INTO the box 11.25 inches. The depth of the box is 15.5 inches. When you take into account the 3/4 would used that leaves you with voila=3.5 inches on port width at the back of the box.

15.5-11.25=4.25 4.25-.75=3.5

Your port on the back wall is either A) Not halved, or B) you measured wrong.

Either way as previously said, scrap the box, build another one correctly this time. Those subs should sound pretty amazing in the right enclosure.

Keep the subs, they aren't the problem. The subs will only do what you ask of them. Right now you're asking them to play around 50 Hz tuning frequency. They'll like a box that is mid 30s tuned I can promise you.

I'm sure they would be impressive, just i have 2 15" RE SX woofers sitting in my room too. i have to decide which pair to keep.. i only paid 200$ for the 2 type R's. either i can keep the small setup or lose a backseat again. lol

I'm convinced you'd be thoroughly impressed with the right box on those Type Rs. I'm no alpine nuthugger by any means, but those Type Rs are some solid good sounding subs. I've got the CHEAPEST Crossfire 10s in a box in my regular cab GMC. They are low power handling, so output isn't crazy, but the box makes em shine. I'm tuned to 33 and these little 10s murder the lows on really low power. Ask 412, enclosure is everything.

... put an external port on the face, problem solved.

Any time you have have a power wire next to your frame put some rubber hosing (or cut up an innertube) around it. The wire is bound to wiggle (due to driving or flex) and the casing will eventually wear through.
