for god's sakes man you've asked virtually this same question like three times. Just go back and check the archives for it, nobody will answer your questions if you don't pay attention to what they say and just ask over and over again.

try this build a box that has 5.00cubic feet internal. put in a divider piece to give you 2.5 ft^3 per side. use one 4" port on each side that is 11.5"'s long. this design already accounts for speaker,port and(moderate) bracing.this should give you about 2.25ft^3 per 12 tuned to 32hz.just make sure that you have 2.5ft^3 per 12 and you should be set.

If RF said that this series doesn't work in a ported enclosure then why the hell are you going to try? instead of getting a sub that's made to be ported or using the proper enclosure, you're willing to possibly damage yours subs amongst other things? Good Luck, I guess.
