Can you guys help me with a new box for a L7 fin my ion.. The box i took out of my windstar doesnt sound as good in my ion ( see sig for pics). In my van it had decent range and was fairly loud playing rap. Now its only moderately loud at a few frequencies. I have both rear seats laid down and that makes it a little louder..

How much distance do you have between the port and the wall?

If you want to try this here is a suggestion, power: to sub(s) rated, amp subsonic filter to 28Hz, minimum port clearance 2 7/8", figure is just an assembly guide:

NOTE: If building outside you need to build a cardboard dummy box to test fit in it's way inside.
