help me port my box

How many cuft is the box you have right now? If you are dead set on porting it then take one sub out, put in a couple 4" aero or maybe one 6". Use the psp calculator

tune it to somewhere in the 30's, unless this is for movies then tune around 25 because lots of movies have stuff down in the teens. Your box volume will be a bit big for just one sub, but on low power it will help it be louder.

Or just build a new box.

^^^ Best advice right there!!!

no, the top is not the same as the bottom on that box, it is about 2.5 ft cubed total without sub displacement. I was thinking "external" port, meaning outside of the box

he didn't realize the depth is different from the top to the bottom of the box, so it was calculated incorrectly.

No probably not. If you truly want both subs with an internal box then it's time to make a new box. And that's the bottom line cuz Trey_Dog says so

I'm at work, i don't have torres here and i ain't doin a bunch of math cause you want to cut holes in a perfectly good carpeted box. That being said,

With an internal aero port or two with around 9sqin of port area/cuft your box volume will probably be close to what one of those 12's need for a ported enclosure. The ports are going to eat up some of the airspace.

Or just build a new box.
