Silver Member Username: Surferdude9371Im BTL Bumpin Post Number: 552 Registered: Mar-07 | because the lines are crooked or just in general? |

Platinum Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA Post Number: 17781 Registered: Oct-05 | no offense taken man. lol. everyone needs second or third opinion. where is the sub gonna go? driving is right about the box. if you are gonna do something like that, you are better off with just a normal port. |
|
Silver Member Username: Surferdude9371Im BTL Bumpin Post Number: 553 Registered: Mar-07 | like that how would you do the port?  |
|
Silver Member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 510 Registered: Sep-06 | That depends entirely on where the enclosure is going to do in the vehicle?? |
|
Silver Member Username: Surferdude9371Im BTL Bumpin Post Number: 554 Registered: Mar-07 | its an extended cab truck port pointed to side sub pointed foward. better if the port was the blue spot?  |

|
Silver Member Username: Surferdude9371Im BTL Bumpin Post Number: 555 Registered: Mar-07 | ok good thought so just makin sure |
|
Platinum Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA Post Number: 17784 Registered: Oct-05 | i still say you are better off with a simple square port to the side. you might even consider aeroports. |
|
Silver Member Username: Surferdude9371Im BTL Bumpin Post Number: 556 Registered: Mar-07 | how do i calc for 2 ports i cant fit one square? |
|
Platinum Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA Post Number: 17785 Registered: Oct-05 | if you do it this way, you can make it so you can change the tuning of the box. that way you can experiment with various tuning to see what you like best.  |
|
Silver Member Username: Surferdude9371Im BTL Bumpin Post Number: 557 Registered: Mar-07 | good idea thnx man. im gonna have to bend it down does that make a diff? |
|
Silver Member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 512 Registered: Sep-06 | If it's an extended cab truck and the sub is on the slanted baffled, I would fire the port up to have the bass response and output come up and over from behind. Having the port down at the bottom is just going to smother the he!! out of bass no to mention having it reflect off and around alot of crap. |
|
Silver Member Username: Surferdude9371Im BTL Bumpin Post Number: 558 Registered: Mar-07 | the port would still come out the side is side bad? i meant bend the port inside the box |
|
Platinum Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA Post Number: 17786 Registered: Oct-05 | how close is that wall of the box going to be to the side of the car? |
|

|
Platinum Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA Post Number: 17788 Registered: Oct-05 | phil is right. thats too close. |
|
Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 7781 Registered: Jun-04 | I did a port setup like this Chad for thieves because he wanted a swappable daily/spl tune except I used two 4 inch pvc ports for his alpha v1 12...he might not like the demensions but its all I could do to with the space he gave me...at least the two ports are straight for a 32 hz tune |

Silver Member Username: Surferdude9371Im BTL Bumpin Post Number: 561 Registered: Mar-07 | 18 btl. where should i put port? |
|
Silver Member Username: Surferdude9371Im BTL Bumpin Post Number: 562 Registered: Mar-07 | hows this look?  |
|
Gold Member Username: DrivingrecklessDD 9515f, 148.2 db Mov... Post Number: 5337 Registered: Apr-06 | how about putting the port on top and the sub facing foward |
|
Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 7782 Registered: Jun-04 | port to the side might work well p. rick ....it does for cannan... I believe he has a similar truck |
|
Silver Member Username: Surferdude9371Im BTL Bumpin Post Number: 563 Registered: Mar-07 | i could do it up so should i do forward up or side? |
|
Platinum Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA Post Number: 17789 Registered: Oct-05 | sean i believe canaan's box is farther away than 6 inches though. |
|
Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 7783 Registered: Jun-04 | we should find out from cannan just to make sure |

Platinum Member Username: WingmanaliveA pic is worth 1000 posts!! Post Number: 13163 Registered: Jun-06 | Parts express has them. You can adjust the length as needed and duct tape it. There are many port calculators out there. I'm at work so I can't link them. Someone else will tho....... |

|
Silver Member Username: Surferdude9371Im BTL Bumpin Post Number: 576 Registered: Mar-07 | out the side of the box? and even if its only 6 inches from the wall? |
|
Gold Member Username: SouthernrebelMonroe, Louisiana 2 DD3515s, 2... Post Number: 5904 Registered: Mar-04 | Yes, out the side of the box. 6" is plenty of space. |
|
Silver Member Username: Surferdude9371Im BTL Bumpin Post Number: 577 Registered: Mar-07 | thnx canaan wanna throw out your definition of a slot port? |
|
Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 7813 Registered: Jun-04 | see I thought he would say its enough room... now you can have a straight port for your daily tune... thats good for output and retuning if you wanted to do that |

Gold Member Username: SouthernrebelMonroe, Louisiana 2 DD3515s, 2... Post Number: 5907 Registered: Mar-04 | As for side loading boxes in extended cab trucks... This did high 147's on a bp1200.1:  This did 149.8 (but had alil too much port area):  This was a MONSTER at 40hz:  And this is about to be swapped out to a 2 6" flare box:  Oh...and this is a slot-port:   |
