Custom Box - Help needed

[HPmuirt]

the top will be a triangle but the bit below will be square.

P.S. Sorry Rotorboy for hijacking your thread , but I thought it might be of interest, if you could still carry the spare.

Its possible to get a lot of volume from the spare wheel space.

As stated its how stock you want it to look.

What style of box you want. One thing with bass boxes/ enclosures is you cant just bang a few bit of material together and away you go. You could be lucky or you could be staving your sub.

My advice looking on this forum is that there is a lot of people out there who have made custom enclosures for the S2 so pick their brains.

Also another thing. Are you after a little low fill or are you wanting to be heard coming.

The S2 has poor sound deading as standard so this is a good place to start if you want the sound inside the car.

I've got 17" Porsche Cup 1 rep's so no chance of a spare

That will be tricky, you'd have to get the measurements yourself for that, as the well is curved you cant get a big box section all the way in only part section.

By the way, this little piggy is my mate who helped build the box.

quite a wealth of knowledge even if he is a sell out buying "Bling" Audiobahn subs

What you could try mark is making your sub box out of cardboard to fit the boot so you can work out the volume by filling it with polystyrene packing beads then emptying them into a box that the volume can be worked out easier. I looked at making mine for the spare wheel but decided against it in the end because I still wanted a spare wheel.

Unless the shape is really complicated it will be easy to work out the volume of the proposed enclosure. Post up your planned dimensions and I can work out the volume for you.

OR

You could download one of those freeware programs that Jamo had and let the software do the maths....

[rotoryboy]

Well I've tried the cardboard method

[Jamo]

looking good but thats got to be too big mate, my box is 0.625 cb ft and it only comes half way down the side.

[rotoryboy]

Would it work if I had a piece of mdf flat across the opening with the sub in it making it level with the rest of the boot floor?
