Building new box/port location ?

[mmets]

Currently have two level 5 15s in a box that I made but was going to get xl's. didn't. Nothing wrong with the box now except I have some 45's in there and took my dowels out to make a little more room. So doing a new box, no 45s in it, using 5/8 threaded rod for bracing (about 21 inches max length for the rod), will end up at 7.5 tuned to about 34 with 15.4 in2 or port area per foot. As you can see i have one battery on its side right now. I just order some flat bar and will be putting the other 3 up on their sides. Is it better to keep the port at the top where it is now or would it be better at the bottom. The new port will be 10.5 by 11 so a buss bar may be in the way a little bit if on top but both may be there if i do it on the bottom. Just looking for some thoughts. Not doing anything for a couple weeks anyways. (at least i don't think so anyways) There are being ran by two 5K's also. Thanks.

In my opinion, in SUVS/whateveryourvehicleis subs always seem to be louder with sub up/ port towards hatch.

Subs will stay up still and port will still be towards the rear. Just wondering if it will make a difference if the port is towards the top (like it is now) or if I put it at the bottom.

Just getting a bump here to see if I can get some opinions on this.

You compete? If not, it's probably not worth the work, you might not notice anything for a daily ride.

I have not competed yet and may at some point. I tend to get tired of the same thing and just change things around to give me something to do. I have to build another box for my wifes car which is not big deal but since I'm doing a new one in her car I figured I would do another one in mine. Wont hurt anyways.
