Guest Posted January 26, 2011 Report Posted January 26, 2011 everything looks good to me. if you want to be a tad louder, aero ports are supposed to help out alot
Sati Posted January 26, 2011 Author Report Posted January 26, 2011 hi mate , thanks for the reply .. i know about Aero ports , ive not heard a big install that used aero ports then a slot/square port. The current port in this design is 3" wide and i will try and round off the edges as much i can to keep port noise down and aid air flow. but i dont think there should be any issuse as ive used 12.55 SPA per cuft , rather then 8 - 10 like other boxes ive done. also i can see if loading off the tail gate glass helps if not swing it around and load of the roof, with out too much effort.

Guest Posted January 26, 2011 Report Posted January 26, 2011 what is SPA? we usually use square feet around here. generally its 12 - 16 sqin (square inches) of port per cubic foot. 9-11 or something like that for aero ports
Sati Posted January 26, 2011 Author Report Posted January 26, 2011 SPA= Square port area.. we use inches over this side. and 8-10 for slots and 5-8 for Aeros (its what ive read and been told to use as minnium) Kit List: Car: 1990 VW Golf MK2 Engine: 2.8 Vr6 200bhp Headunit: Alpine CDE-9880R Speakers: 4x 6.5" Vibe Black Air Comps Subs: 2x 15" Fi Bl's D2 Amps: Orion D5000 (2.5kw) & Alpine MRV-T502 (300wrms) Processors: Rockford Fostgate EPX 2 , AudioControl Epicenter Power Supply: 250amp alt , 0awg wireing , Yuasa SWL 2500FR Batterys
