RooTxBeeR Posted December 10, 2016 Report Share Posted December 10, 2016 I haven't messed with torres in a long time. Forgot how the dimensions for the port in height and width relate to the LxWxH of the box. So if you are standing starting at the box directly to what the outer dimensions are. The height of the port relates to the boxes depth? Then the width of it relates to the width of the box? Does that make sense?

Jessica Posted December 10, 2016 Report Share Posted December 10, 2016 edit: sorry i cropped off width. but port dimension are same as box. if you choose "port up" then the height will be the box depth instead, but the port length will still be the port length.

I completely forgot to mention sup up port up. Thanks for the clarification.

Joe X Posted December 11, 2016 Report Share Posted December 11, 2016 Width and height are in relation to the surface in which the external port window is regardless of where it's aimed at, the length is the center line length of the port end to end (physical length), length direction is irrelevant and can change one or many times as the port turns.

RooTxBeeR Posted December 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2016 Sweet, thank you. I have 1 more question. It is about making dimensions for cuts based on how your design is in torres. Last time I built a box off a design I created through torres was 5+ years ago lmao every other someone else had put together. My question is specifically about making the cut dimensions for the board of the port. So since my physical port length is 24.5, I subtract out the top boards of the baffle, which is 23, then subtract my port width, which would be 23 - 3.125 = 19.875. So my first board would need to be 39x19.875, right? Then comes next board, I have a port bend, so I take that 19.875, and that boards wood thickness should be taken out from the second boards length correct? So instantly subtracting .75 out of what the final boards length would be. So to get my final boards length, would be 24.5(port length) - 19.875(first board length) - .75(wood thickness from first board) = 3.875. So based off my design I have done up here, my 2 lengths for my port boards would be, 39x19.875 and 39x3.875 correct? I have only actually build 2 boxes I designed back when I was 18 and they had issues with the port. Since then I have had others design them and I want to say I did it all on this one, even the design.

DLHgn Posted December 11, 2016 Report Share Posted December 11, 2016 I can't really help you with Torres seeing has I have no real experience using it but my suggestion is to figure the specs you do know and try modeling it in a 3D modeling program like sketchup or whatever you choose. This way you can know exactly what dimension of every panel is and know what it will look like after building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not know how to calcuate port dimensions without torres, if I had that ability to do so and use a 3d program I wouldn't ask hehe On 11/20/2012 at 8:54 PM, AMI CUSTOMS said: Turned mine up today at a light, guy next to me his steering wheel started moving and he looked over at me like I was a magician lol.

DLHgn Posted December 11, 2016 Report Share Posted December 11, 2016 Oh I know, I meant that after using torres and having your known dimensions you can model it up. Use torres to give you the dimensions needed and take that and model it so you have a more tangible object to look at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessica Posted December 11, 2016 Report Share Posted December 11, 2016 I'll say your port ratio is really really high and will probably give you issues Rest in peace, walled 87 accord build log 03' Corolla build with AA Mayhem inside.
