I also need help on a box. Like Size and port Size. I have an 02 eclipse.

you have two but only want to use one? What's your budget on the amp? How big can the box be (dimensions)?

That's purely speculation. Is it your goal to just get as loud as possible?

well i had them both in my avenger in a sealed box with a lanzar optidrive 2000 at half an ohme and they where loud but my amp dosen't work anymore and i would like to cut back on the weight some and cost of an amp. So i tough if it was going to be the same with one y not.

You should do 2 ported IMO

1 ported will go lower and require less power, as well as cut the weight factor out. 2 sealed would be louder than 1 ported, 2 ported would be insanely loud..... you actually had them both ported for a while... that was just disgusting loud.

2 sealed: large box, heavy, realatively flat responce... power hungry

2 ported larger box, will have to be tuned high (again like before) stupid loud, large hump responce

1 sealed... either small box, kind of peaky, less power, not so loud or large sealed flatter/lower responce a bit more efficient

1 ported less weight, lower extention, less power required, flattest responce

biggest issue... they take a chit ton of power, any less than $300 on an amp and trying to power them both is pointless. if you run them both, youre gonna have to spend a few dollars on a bigger amp and some electrical upgrades.

Where there's your problem.

But how much are you willing to spend on a new amp?

trying to stay on the lower end of 200 but for the right amp might mabey 300 or so

Welcome to SSA. First off, ported will not go lower, that is very dependent on the box and build.
