Im looking for a 150 Im currently getting a 148.5 using 3300 watts real power. the box has 2 6" aero ports the box is 4 cu ft after sub displacement. I know everyone says to go smaller. If I do that would yall keep both aero ports or doing something less. Just let me know what yall think. Its a pioneer spl sub (ts-w8102spl) 15".

you should probably get a car to put your box in. that will help you hit 150

you could try testing your port length, and firing the box different directions if you havent already done so. but for that vehicle and woofer it seems like a pretty good score

I have not tried adjusting anything except the seats. I do not have sound deadner but I will add it to the roof soon. I had a freind sit on the roof and I gained a tenth so i think sound deadner might help a bit.

I will in the next couple of weeks build a ney box> I plan on using the aero ports still But I will go from 4.2 cuft to about 3.6. The sub takes up .28 and If I get close I want a little room to add resin to the corners so after all that I hope to have it around 3.2 or 3.3 cuft. Also I plan to put a large round over on the outside corner of the box that goes from the front of the box to the side that has the ports, I just think that may help air flow. Tell me what you think and any Ideas are welcome. Thanks everyone

use a good quality damping material, like Damplifier Pro. don't bother with massloaders like Fatmat.
Adding the damping will probably lower the frequency your car desires....so I would do that before rebuilding the box

sometimes two ports make standing wave and cancellation. Have you tried one port of bigger diameter?

I have not tried one port> when i was doing my current set up I was asking if 1 larger port was better than 2 and no one knew for sure but I will do that on the next bow. Im thinking Using pvc tube and making a flaer out of mdf and fiberglass.

Sub up drivers side, port up passengers side, slot port. I would try a 8" port if possible or a slot port of the same area.
