Sub Forward Port Back In A Trunk ?


Hellbilly429

Recommended Posts

I have some questions about a sub enclosure for a trunk build, has anyone ever run sub forward port back in a trunk before with any good results? What about sealed off sub forward port back? I have attempted to search this forum and online for answers to these questions with no avail.

Also if it was worth a try I would build one using a slot port rather than an aeroport, not sure how often that is done either or what it would do to the tuning of the box?

As always any help is greatly appreciated as I have pondered this for quite some time now...

I haven't tried it yet but I've been told that subs back with the port going forward toward the car as long as you actually have the seats down or a hole between the seats and the port facing into that hole that doing it like that is great for insane airflow

Thanks I was pretty excited about the alt myself. kind of like a school girl, in a dress, on a swing. lol

It's warming up enough that the donut-punching cyclist douchenozzles are getting their two wheeled fagmobiles out.

hmmm, but does it make it louder or just more noticable air-flow? I keep my back seat down anyways as I have the sub and port forward right now and get pretty good air-flow. I was just curious if there would be anything to gain there as a bunch of SUV's do sub forward port back or sub up port back.

I don't think it actually makes it louder... but it might help channel the volume into the cab instead of it rattling around the trunk for a while before coming into the cab... and yea most definitely more airflow so you'll feel it more (maybe even be able to get some awesome hair tricks out of your trunk build ;) lol)

how would it be more flow than sub and port facing into the cab with the seat down?

more than having both facing into the cab? probably not I was going with more flow than subs and port facing into the trunk
