In NY its a law that you an tint anying on your back windows, paint them black, or anything etc but as long as your front windows are 25% or higher or even none your absolutely fine. I couldent find 25 only 15% and below but did find 35% so thats what I did and it looks and works awesome! Just have to follow the rules, but wall away you can as long as you have side view mirrors.

i think facing the woofer and port into the trunk is the problem.

turn it a complete 180 and see if its any louder.

in a trunk set-up subs and port toward the trunk would be louder, but this has no pass through availability besides the 6x9 holes, but i think if you turned it around you would see an increases.

I had it the way your saying first. then facing up now toward the trunk. so far the way i have it is the loudest. but i've also noticed that its getting louder after playing it for a little while i think it just needs to break in and i need to raise the tuning a little. i cant really pick up and "higher" notes.

I just don't know why the sub is getting so warm. idk if its just because of the glue from the coil or what.

you could be clipping it.

Oh i know and i appreciate it. i really think it something to do with the box. i just don't know what. its a 8.3 cu ft box before woofer displacement. so around 8 cu ft. tuned to 32hz. the woofer is seeing at max 1k. gains aren't high. not even past half. and i don't hear any distortion.

i would drop your box volume down to 5.5 - 7 cubes.

my btrl is in 6.5 and doesnt get warm at all and i was feeding it with a DD Z1, over 4000 RMS
