The car peaks at 46HZ. Now what?

Aero port, build one box and adjust the port per freq and go from there

Its a trunk build, the seats does not fold so I would get them out

I guess mhart is right and my best shot is building several diameters external aeroports and shrink them until I get the best result.

Now I just need to wait for the the subwoofers.

yeah the best way is with testing. if your resonant is 46hz and your using round ports try at 36hz with around 10" of port per cuft. then raise the tuning to about 38hz with about the same port area. then go up t 40hz. keep doing that until you don't gain anything. after you find a good spot to tune at try having less and more port area with the same tuning freq. more port area should make is peakier around the tuning freq while less port area should give it a wider freq range.

That 8-12 SQ per cubic feet on aeros it´s garbage if you are looking to build for SPL, just try a few aeros out , test test and test

P.S: I´m using 42 SQ per cubic feet , single 6" aero for a 8" subwoofer and i´m doing GREAT, port size depends mostly on the sub, not the box size

I've built a box or two with port area of 8-16 cu.in/sq.ft. I know that if I want to max my result it's not enough, I just wanted to know if I'll be good with 20 per or should I aim to 30 per or so.

damnnnnnn!!!!

from what ive learned in recent searches is that port area is more dependent on the amount of air a sub can move then the box size itself. want to keep it with in x amount of port velocity to prevent port noise. still learning on the port velocity thing though.

What should I look for in a sub if I'm after big big port area?

Im running a P-area that most people on this forum would laugh at...

Meh.. may work. may not... well see...
