There's not a ton of bracing, but I will have 2 baffles once it's complete. I also ran into a small snag today. I'm not going to be able to do 45's in every corner cause there isn't enough room to do them with some of the port holes and the speaker holes so I'll do every corner except the few I can't.

Any feedback is welcome. Does anyone have any predictions on the numbers that it will hit. Keep in mind that I did a 149.7 in the same car with 2 Nightshade 12's and what I've done here is added a stronger battery under the hood, upgraded to 2 15's, and built a new larger box.

I should have the other baffle with the speaker holes cut out and glued on tomorrow. Then it's on to resining this bitch. I have a bit of clean up to do in the car since I will be throwing this monster enclosure in there I need to have everything tidy before that happens.

One question. Do you guys think that I should mount the amps on the back of the seats or the back of the box?

i go back of the box just makes it easier. but this looks good for doing all the work out of an appartment porch. lol

Thanks man. You have no idea how limited the space actually is. I've found myself running into all kinds of stuff while building. I got a bunch of cardboard boxes from work to lay down on the porch so I can coat the box with resin. I'll probably work on trying to get the wiring straightened up while I wait for the resin to dry.

Looking better everyday..... The amp question is a good one, everyone says don't mount to the box!!!!! But the boxes we build seem to be the only thing that doesn't flex or Vibrate, in the whole car...LOL...
