just find some subwoofers and amps worth competing with and build a box according to the specifications for the subs. following these specifications to the point will optimize your suboofers performance in SQ and SPL

I already have a AWIS15P audiobahn that is a specific sub for SPL and the A2300HCT amp that is a 2400W RMS at 1ohm bridged. The only problem i have is that when i read the specifics on the manual, they just explain u 3 different types of box. So i dont know what is the best. And plus i heard i have to build a box according to the frequency of my car...I built a box for this sub and i tuned it at 38Hz but it doesnt work really good, i mean, i cant reach the SPL that i thought i could. So prolly there's something wrong in it. Maybe i should tune it higher (around 50 Hz)...I dont know much about Box buildings.Thanks for the help

depending on the room you have, you culd go 6th order, or quarter-wave transmission line.
either box would yield some pretty hard hitting results.
The TL enclosure wound sound a lot better, but the 6th order would be louder.
