What is holding my system back?

[Black F1]

I have two american bass XFL 12s in a ported box with about 2 cubic feet per sub and tuned to 32-33 hz. I have a soundqubed 2200 powering them, mechman 250w alternator, and 2 gauge wire all around. I have 12 gauge going to the subs from yje amp but that will soon be replaced with 8 gauge when i take the subs out to carpet my box.. i have just some kind of regular battery .. they hit hard but not super hard. Is it my 2 gauge wires holding it back? I saw that 2 gauge can only transfer 180 amps and doing the math i saw that my amp at full power would be around 225 amps.. so would adding another run of 2 gauge or replacing it with 0 gauge help? Or maybe this is what 2200 watts should sound like? Im really not sure. Any help is appriciated

Hmm could be a lot of things

Like what? You have any ideas?

If you were pullin more than the wire is rated for now, you be losing fuses and burning wire. What ohm load are you showing the amp nominal?

it could be a hundred different things but i bet the box is not what it should be

The amp is seeing a 1 ohm load... also im not posative but i thought my box was okay.. ill post a pic of it while it was still in construction

Flip the box upside down in your head. Its a center console in my truck and the back part goes over the rear seat with the subs down firing. A tad over 4 cubic feet tuned to 32-33 hz with like 50 in^2 of port area

I think your port is way to small , probably need double port area or triple

For 2 sundown SA10's u need like 90 square inches of port area so compared to what u have for 12's , those subs are awesome I'd givem more port
