I presume you mean to say you WANT to do your trunk over this winter. I'm sure people on the forum can help you thru it. Be it, wild fiberglass designs, or just your common slot ported enclosure, theres lots you can do.

BTW, outta curiousity, is that bassworx enclosure the one where you have to invert the woofers?

What are the pioneer speakers in the front, I'm guessing they are coaxials in the doors? I would say your next step is to build a better front stage.

Well yes I do plan to do a whole custom trunk. I already know how to do the fiberglassing, bondoing, and painting. and already got a planned almost sorted out for my trunk. This will be my first project and hopfully not my last. But first i just want to learn how to build a box properly for any subs i have to build for. I will take a picture of the bassworx box this week. and no the subs are not inverted in this box.

i've designed hundreads and built several enclosures for people here on the forum, so if you need a hand with the enclosure i'll be more than willing to help.
