Has anyone ever tried to make a GP loud while still remaining in the trunk?
I'm currently at a 145.4 and have a little more to play with. Already done big 3 with 0g. yellow top in front kinetik 2400 in rear. Tons of dynamatt and foam.
Current box has a 7inch port. Thought of trying a bigger port.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Port on driver side...slot port...tuned to 47hz..seven inches wide by 14 tall also same width at elbow inside box..
subs slightly off centered all the way to passenger side.
Have been entertaining ideas of a 10inch port...I got the room...lol

^x2...Maybe port through the rear deck but with the subs walled-off at the opening into the trunk and firing into the cabin...

I personally havent heard a setup like this but I could imagine you could have a swappable port for daily and comp, couldnt imagine it sounding horrible...

From what I've been able to test in vehicle with other setups I believe my frequency to be 46hz.

tune lower that should help you box peak more in line with your car. I used to have a high tuned box in my cav it was like 50hz then I tuned for music and got louder

I'll try that with my next box. or better yet if i can get near a meter and some help ill tune current box down and see what transpires.
also...I have more than enough room to make port bigger..up to 10 inch wide. Would this help?

unless you add more length too, but then you give up major box volume, which likely won't help when lowering the frequency.

Last Weekend at the TNE Mothers Day Soundoff I set a new record for myself at 145.8. The additional run from front batt gave me a .4 increase. Same settings as the show before that.
Not bad.
Going to another show this Sunday in Ogdensburg, NY. I'm not doing to bad this year but I'm fastly being caught by David. He's def. keeping me on my toes.
I'll keep ya posted.
