Really clean car, looks good!!! How close to the inside wall are the areo ports, it seems in the pictures they are close, of course pics can be deceiving. Keep up the great work!!

It seems everyone is liking these terminals, but believe it or not, I got them from home depot!!!!! Look in the electrical section; there are a few different sizes. I've been using these since I got into car audio about 4-5 years ago. My buddy turned me on to them, and I've used them ever since.

The ports are only 3.25" away from the back wall. But I originally planned on cutting them to tune to like 38 ish (15-16 inches flared length). But a friend of mine advised me to drop them in there (stock length; 18 inches flared) and see how it sounds. So thats why they are only 3.25'' from the back wall.

I have no idea how it sounds because I am waiting on power wire. But when I tap on the cone of the woofer, its loud and deep. My girlfriend actually heard boom boom inside of my house from me tapping on the woofer in the garage.. I think I did a good job on this box! We will see!

Yea, well I was gonna do a single 12 with a slot port, but the box was big for that too. Turned out I could run a 15 with aero ports in a box not much bigger, but we'll see how long I keep this for. I might be disappointed with how the car handles and accelerates with the extra weight..

It should pound in a hatch no doubt. I bet two SA-10 would be great for an RSX; light, small box and pound. I had two 12" L7 in mine.

With my buddies in the car the acceleration was meh ok at best. I am sure you know this. Your box will probably affect acceleration atleast imo. Is that a big deal to you? Put a clubrsx header and clubrsx intake on it and a k-pro and you will be happy :)

Let us know how things go!

Stifling the rear will help with the weight, body roll and in the corners. A lower pro. tire will help to, good looking car man!

Sweet car. I noticed your shift boot. Auger or just ebay? A buddy has an si and got the same boot from Auger. On his it looks like it should have been stock because of the stitching in the seats. That 15 should slam in that car. How do you like the Greddy exhaust? I've never heard one but I've heard a Vibrant and it sounded amazing Im guessing the Greddy would be pretty stellar too

Thanks for the advice. I may look into dropping the front of the car to level the car out with the back

I actually bought the car with the boot. Until now, I thought it was stock. Lol

Ahhhhh, I really want to turbo. However, my car is a daily driver and I need it to be reliable. So I was thinkin supercharger or leave it NA. Maybe slight motor work?

Just get little rubber rings to put between the plate and the amp when mounting it. Should help with the vibrations.

Clean car :eek5wavey:
