Going From 2 To 4 Subwoofers, New Box Ideas?

I've currently got two 15" AA Havocs in my '01 Blazer. It's in a 'Meade inspired box, about 9.5 cubes, heavily braced with a removable port in the back currently tuned to 38 Hz. It pounds devastatingly hard, but I'm looking to pick up the lows better without sacrificing anything, so I'm going to (4) 15's. (I really want a hairtrick ;) )

I've got the subs on a SAZ-3000D, which is about the limit I'm willing to go electrically. I've got the current box behind the back seats, but I plan to remove the seats for the new box, giving me about 18 cubes to play with, without walling. I'm looking to move a lot of air across a broad range of frequencies, NOT a fart box. This will be strictly for music, and showing off :spiteful:

Ideas guys?

Because I plan to go wider than the wheel wells allow, think of it like two boxes on top of each other, the bottom portion fits between the wheel wells the top goes beyond this width.

The bottom section is 9" tall, 54" deep, 38" wide.

The top section is 9" tall, 54" deep, 48" wide.

It looks like this:

This gives me about 18.9 cubic feet internal, minus bracing so about 18 feet. I may choose to actually "wrap" around the wheel wells but I'll need to see if the extra airspace is worth the hassle.

if you go 38x54x18 you can get 18 before displacement and bracing

and the havocs need 3-5 cubes per sub so you could get away with just that and making it one layer
