You need to find out the Resonant frequency of the vehicle your trying to get the 150 out of.

Put a temp face over the port to completely cover it up and make the box sealed. Flatten out your eq on the headunit, disable bass boost on the amp. Do everything you can to make the response curve as flat as possible. Then play test tones on a meter and find out what the "Resonant frequency" is of your car. After you find out your peak note, tune the ported box to peak with that note. Tune the box a little bit below your peak frequency, usually about 5-7 hz lower will work fine.

Here's some more suggestions, you might have done them already...

Put tape on the face of the sub where the basket meets the box.

If you have the money, throw some fiberglass resin in the box, sand it smooth and wax it.

Make sure you have speaker wires going directly from the amp to both voice coils. Don't piggyback a six inch wire from one coil to the other.

Make sure the box doesn't flex at all, you usually lose output with flexing.

If you still don't get a 150 out of the mt, then port the rear deck on the car, make it look stock and don't tell anyone! hahaha
