Lost Legacy Posted October 4, 2010 Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 Planning on building a new box before the end of the year, but i'm not sure with what material i should use. ill be building roughly a 100 litre ported box. and want to get the most out of the sub. last box sort of failed as the wood was under too much pressure because it was a very small sealed box. wish to avoid this problem second time round. Any advice you can give me will be much appreciated. Thanks Quote Honda Accord SirT + Mad sounds = Awesomeness VTEC go BRAAAAAPPPP http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/141261-99-accord-sirt-sq-build/ Alright well i never done the big 3 so i see in my vision my truck on fire...

Why don't we just start saying "dont fiberglass that wall for 4 18's. Braces, glue and screws will hold it just fine". Sure it will, but why not just take the extra step and make it that much better.
