Question street B setup help

hey guys i changed the setup in my windstar from 2 12's to 1 15 with the 12's i did a 142'5 db at 63hrz and thought the box may have been to small for them to work proper so i re faced it today and put in a single 15 and rewired my amp to 1ohm and add 8 inches to my port wall length thinking it would change the tuning to some where in the mid to high 50hrz range so i put it on our term lab and now it peeks at 64 hrz and i only gained 1 db can anyone tell me why LOL
i'm lost on this one never had it happen before

...

you changed like 5 things so its pretty hard to pinpoint which one is the problem...I would suggest next time only change one thing at a time or you will confuse yourself like you did and won't know where you are

that note seems like its way too high for a minivan...I could be wrong but those type of cars usually peak in the low 50s

You may want to play with the tuning with the port.
