That's not a lot of space for two woofers ported (3.40893^3ft GROSS). You did not give a budget, so it's gonna be kind of hard to help you.

With the space you have, you might get away with an optimal enclosure for 2 SSD 10's, or a less than optimal enclosure for 2 SSD 12's. Or you can step up to 1 SSD 15".

A pair of 10's in the box dimensions above would work.

Make a slot port on one end of the box that is 14.5 x 2.5. It will go into the box until it is 2.5" from the bottom and then turn and go another 16"

With that box and amp, you could use SSD's or Q's

You could also do a set of Q12's sealed in that box, which would sound really good. . .

my budjet is $450 also will a sealed box sound better in a hatchback?

The only hatch I have ever owned had (3) 10's sealed and it was LOUD!!

I think the (2) 12's sealed woudl be more than enough. . .
