don't know about hondas but my 300 only had enough room for one fiteen two would have made the box to small but then again I did want some trunk to put stuff in but its not alot can only fit some groceries or smaller items have to measure it up and see if you have enough trunk to do two firing forward sealed off from the trunk might have to build it in the car so a wall might be a better choice

Now when you say "sealed" in the trunk, do you mean like foaming around the edges of the box ? so that the trunk is completely sealed off from the rest of the car?

yes, facing the woofers and port towards the front of the car (pushing box as close as possible to the little "barrier" that separates the trunk and the cabin) and putting expanding foam around the edges so no air gets into the trunk

You need to have subs facing forward and port forward, It has to be sealed off. You need around 20-22 sq inches of port per cube. And tune the box some where around 36-40 hertz and the db's will follow.

Thanks! Thats exactly what I was wondering about the barrier between the trunk and cabin. What kinda foam should I use? Would they sell it at like lowes or home depot?

Alrite, i like the sound of that. :drink40: So i'm gonna have 2 12 inch dc audio's. What would you recommend for tuning?

Oh & a quick question, do you think those 12's are gonna be a big difference from the l5's? Sure thats a stupid question, but i'm just wondering haha.
