Help... Pioneer TS-W3002D2

[Bryan88]

I am trying to design a single 12" vented enclosure for my brothers 91 Integra, i tried using the Torres tuning Calculator but cant figure out the Port Dimensions.

i want to get the maximum out of this set up which will be the Pioneer TS-W3002D2 bridged at 1 ohm and i will be using the Pioneer GM-D8601 amp to move this sub...

i measured the maximum size as followed due to keeping some trunk space...

H= 14.5" - 15" Maximum

W= 30" Maximum

D= 11" - 12" Maximum

Here is the spec sheet for the sub

This is as far as i got with the Torres Box Calculator

Any other suggestions

So here is a simple suggestion port/subs front for a trunk car:

Enclosure Specifications:

Fb = 34 Hz
Vb = 1.4 ft^3

External Height = 14 in
External Width = 29 in
External Depth = 12 in

Port Width = 1 1/2 in

Cut Sheet List:

* All Dimensions in Inches.
* Wood Thickness is 3/4 for all Parts.

External Enclosure Parts:

2 x Front & Back (3 parts) = 29 x 14

Left & Right Sides = 9 3/4 x 12 1/2

Top & Bottom = 29 x 9 3/4

L Port Internal Assembly Parts:

Front to Back = 8 1/4 x 12 1/2
Extension = 15 1/4 x 12 1/2

Assembly guide (generic dimensions):

Important notes:

- The 45s if you want to do them are 2 1/2" wide except the one/ones inside the port, if you want that let me know.

- All trunk boxes built outside the car need to fit in their way in not just have the right dimensions.

- The port needs 1 1/2" of free airspace in front of it for proper operation.

- Setting your amp subsonic filter to 28Hz is suggested.

Joe, thanks, btw what do you mean by Shared Port Internal Assembly Parts: or should i just ignore that?

also for the port i have the dimensions at the extension for .75 then the actual port is 1.5, is this correct?

Also is there a specific area to mount the sub at or any were in the front is fine?

[Joe X]

Ok, fixed that above, sorry, did a sketch for on your dimensions, place the sub as shown.

[Bryan88]

Thank you once again Joe, do i install a 45 on the port area? or no need?

[Joe X]

If you take a look at the sketch, corners inside the port are slanted, do that or round them, if you want to do a 45 inside the port make sure the width of the port stays the same at the corner than elsewhere inside the port, that is 1 1/2".

So any updates? I was thinking about using this same sub.
