    Are you going to custom build a box using the wheel well, do you want big boom with some dual 15"s, or small and powerful sealed boxes? I guess the question is, what are you looking to do as far as sound goes?

    there are a couple of very knowledgeable stereo guys here. Just wait a little while till they get a chance to get on and check this post out.

    Meanwhile, do a quick search around. There are a few very informative threads about what options you should look into to get more sound from your speakers.

    Sorry for not getting back to you sooner.

    A Small, sealed box would only produces tight, focused bass (like a, oh well, you know what I mean). It is very accurate with bass response , but requires alot more power...you amp should suffice if it is bridgeable.
    I would suggest a box similar to the dimensions I started out with which was
    W: 16-15/16"
    H: 16"
    Bottom depth: 12-3/4"
    Top depth: 7-1/8"

    I got a Q-Box a couple of years ago when starting out and filled with some poly-fill for some added spaciousness.

    If you do want louder, the next step would be ported. It requires less power but needs more space. Then, that is when you get down to the bandpass for big ballers. Less power for sure, unfocused, gut wrenching bass (depending on the setup).
