My enclosure I have now is tuned at 35 hz and has been able to do 149 a couple of times, but lately only doing 148.7 do you have a design that could get me to 150 or over hurdle?

Have you tried sub up port back?
Yes, so far, my best results have been subs back and port back. My cargo door takes a beating that way. I broke my window latch inside the door and have cracks in the metal. I used big fender washers to reattach the window latch and also repaired the cracks.

Well I made a new box just like the one that tinted made except we made the dimensions bigger for my 15" Nightshades. The box turned out great, but have not tested yet on the meter because it was like almost 2:00 in the morning. My buddy lives somewhat in the country, but has a neighbor across the street from him. I did do a couple of small burps and it seems much louder than my old box. It seemed to be louder with the port firing into the driver's side. I hope to get more testing done before the show today at 3:00.

Put a pic up of your box that you built Danny. I want to see how it turned out. I'm sure that if you put up a pic or two Yuli could give you a few tips on how to make it better too.

I just went outside to take pics. I will have them up in just a few minutes.

Did some testing before the show and ended up doing 149.19. At the competition, I did a 149.2 on the dash with the term lab meter. Not too shabby for a small box with 2 15" Nightshades. I need 8 more tenths to get that 150 db mark. I need suggestions please.
