And triticum , I very much value your opinion and knowledge, everything I read that you have said makes sense and you back it up with facts so if you so something will work ima go for it. also my amp puts out 1200 @2 ohms and 3k @.5 ohms so if I just have to I can wire up to 2 ohms . I don't want to not use all my amp, especially after impedance rise, ill be using only like a 1/4 of its full power. I have 58" total width if I port either front or up, if less than 58 I can port side and use a straight port without a turn in it. That box looks pretty good to me. Here is a couple things to keep in mind. Each sub is going to take up .06 cu ft, so you should enter .24 in the "Woofer" displacement box, I assume this is going to be a 3 common wall slot port (which is what most slot port boxes are), so you will want to put a 3 in the "# of Common Port Walls" box. Both of these things are going to change your numbers around a bit. Aslo, its been my experience that Torres tunes you a bit on the low side, so you can probably shorten your port up and inch or two from what it says to get the tuning you want.

BobbyG2 Posted June 4, 2019 Report Share Posted June 4, 2019 Might passive radiators be up your alley? Not a lot of people using them but they are the perfect solution for small enclosure/high power builds. *New vehicle and system coming soon.* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ehall8702 Posted June 5, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2019 so I think this is my final number crunching , gonna build it and see what it does. hopefully itll perform get down. will try and post results when im done. thankx everyone for the help. just for shits and giggles I set one of the 8s in a 18" tall piece of 8" pvc pipe and was actually shocked on how it got down, these things are lil monsters. 2009 Silverado 1500, 7.5" lift, 37x12.50r17s, Built Gen 4 5.3L ( 4.8l flat pistons, decked 243s, SS2 Cam, Pac 1218 springs, ported intake, 120mm TB, Long tubes, 3" duals HP tuner software tuned by me), 4l80e swapped and 4.56 gears.

ehall8702 Posted June 5, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2019 realized my flaw ( port hieght, for some reason I used 3" vs 1.5" subtracted from overall box height) here is edited design. got more port area out of it too 2009 Silverado 1500, 7.5" lift, 37x12.50r17s, Built Gen 4 5.3L ( 4.8l flat pistons, decked 243s, SS2 Cam, Pac 1218 springs, ported intake, 120mm TB, Long tubes, 3" duals HP tuner software tuned by me), 4l80e swapped and 4.56 gears.

ehall8702 Posted June 5, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2019 Just talked to sq, they recommend 3 cubes with 48sqin port area at 32hz...guess it's back to more number crunching lol, 2009 Silverado 1500, 7.5" lift, 37x12.50r17s, Built Gen 4 5.3L ( 4.8l flat pistons, decked 243s, SS2 Cam, Pac 1218 springs, ported intake, 120mm TB, Long tubes, 3" duals HP tuner software tuned by me), 4l80e swapped and 4.56 gears.

I would really encourage you to try the box design you had posted above. It should be great. Your actual tuning will probably come out pretty close to 32 Hz anyway since Torres tends to error a bit on the high side.

Man, built the box Tonite, got it just sitting and amp gain full as low as it gets and this setup straight gets the fuck down! That not tune on amp yet and volume under half! I cannot wait to get em broke in and dial the amp in. Will get sum pics and video tomorrow. I haven't put my rear seat in yet so box is laying on my passenger seat still but I have to take box out and rhino line it still, just wanted to see what it was gonna do.
