Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior Sub Box Question

Okay guys, and girls. Im building my own sub box and its complicated as hell, but anyways. I was just wondering if you pressurized the box like put a little bit of air pressure inside it would that help with the Performance of the subs? because i know that they need air to push on so if it was a little pressurized wouldnt it be easier for the sub to hit? its just a question that I thought of when I was pondering on how the hell im going to cut this next piece.

Uhhhhhh...NO. It sounds like you shouldn't be trying to build your own box!!

Why should I not be building my own box?

Pressurising it will not work, what is complicated about making the box? I believe the formulas for the dimensions can be found by using google...

haha can you say angles angles angles...the box takes up about 3/4 of my trunk ill post a pic of my progress here in a lil bit. gotta go and pick up some tools

www.carstereo.com [carstereo.com] has a box dimension calculator

i built my box, used expiensive ass carbon board, the kind used to make counter tops. its was more $$$$ and much heavier than the pre made stuff at audio shops, i think it has a heavier bass sound, there is a special spot where you are supposed to port it. but i just guessed, i know its wrong but it still sounds good

i didnt get any dimensions from anywhere, i used my own design which means it is just as square as it can be!

Here is where im at so far. not your basic box.

where is the best place to run my power wire?? should I drill thru the fire wall?

yes...

okay...
