do your homework on bass horn design and see if you can fold one into your vehicle, these things are huge but they work and they can sound good (though I have never heard one in a car). Think of a port 8 to 15 foot long depending on design

I'm not sure if it is still there or not, but when I was younger (much) there was a shop down in Peterborough called the "Audio Room" that built rear loaded horns for DJ use. These things used a single 8" driver (German made if I remember correctly), and were simply mind boggling loud not to mention extremely clean sounding.

I have a friend in delta thats is a sound engineer, he builds tons of home audio stuff for people he knows, he used to work with me ive asked him for any help he can provide on this ill let you know anything he happens to toss my way, I know this kind of thing is right up his alley, he views the horn system used in IMAX the same way a normal guys views the worlds hottest woman.

yeah the design would be great but i think its something very easy to do wrong... And we dont need that! so like i said anything he can pass my way ill pass on to you, i love the idea of using a rear loaded horn, plus its sneaky it just looks like a regular slot port....
