I'd double that area if I were you, use this calculator http://www.carstereo.com/help/Articles.cfm?id=31

Get a Raptor.

I like

2 cubes is optimal for them.

Yes it will.

Hey Funky Pups destroy vehicles. They aren't allowed in competition anymore because there is no competition.

Which is beneficial if he is going for loud, lol.

You need a TON more port, you have them modeled to run in a leaky sealed box, not a vented enclosure.

Three hard spiders stock.

Depends on your musical preferences

2.5 cubes is a bit big for a single 12"

I'd throw Grado into the mix if open ear is what you prefer.

If that's legitimate I'd buy it.

You are used to ferrite motors obviously, neodymium is a whole different beast by friend.

Yep, the BL 12" ported will do what you want WAY more than the Q. It is musical and not a competition sub. Read what ///M5 said yet again. You are going to blow a Q. It cannot handle the abuse a BL can because it is made for pristine quality, NOT loud.

My post remains, and it is my opinion

Sure can't.

The low tuned is designed for the daily playing of music. Fb is tuning frequency, F3 is the point where SPL is decreased by 3 decibels from a point of reference.

^Truth.

Sounds like your enclosure is the limiting factor. What are the specifications of your enclosure?

Would you like a big steamy cup of fail with that? Ive been cracking wep's lol stealing internet Careful now, I'll crack yours form over here!

It really depends on the frame of your vehicle, if it is a solid frame front to back ground there, if it is not a solid frame it can create resistance, so it would be better to make a run of wire.

It is simple math, plugging numbers into a formula is high school math. If someone dropped out of high school they know how to use a calculator anyways.

Sometimes I'm weary using manufacturers listed T/S parameters, I do trust Fi and SSA, but there are many companies where I would rather do the measurements myself.
