you can't just stick a port on a sealed box. sealed boxes don't have sufficient volume.

i calculated it out i found one that is 1.6 cubic feet and the recommended ported box volume is 1-1.75 would it work if the volume and everything is right

Sure go ahead and try it. At worst you've ruined a cheaply made enclosure and wasted a little money. You could have a ported box built to spec which would be the smart thing to do though...
