Is it portable? Negative


Recommended Posts

Alright, I came up with a new box design. I measured my truck and this every bit space I have available. I drew it up on CAD before I calculated volume, and to see where I stand without the little pot holes in the bottom I just did it as if I had a flat bottom, and havent done it for the pot holes yet.

Anyway, without the pot holes at the bottom, I came up with something like.... 3.8894ft3.

A few questions pop up while looking at these figures:

1) Kicker manual says I need 1.75ft3, Do I need EXACTLY that much or can I go a bit over or under?

2) Lastly, for now, If I wanted to make it a round port, is it as simple as just figuring the sq inches then moving them over to a length of round port with the same internal volume? I came up with something like 59.32" long at 4" diameter, sound about right?

I always read on here people saying "Ask questions, thats what the site is for" so we'll see how that works out.

Any help would be welcomed and appreciated. Thanks!!

Alright, I've included a few pics and a vid for better visualization for those who care.

It's unfinished btw, I didn't draw some of the internals cause it's a real pain...

Well now I'm glad I didnt rush off and build it, I re worked the design and saw I could have gotten a little more space outa it.
