What Fosgate amp to choose?
#15
Your ports could be too small to push enough LF air inside the cabin...even if they are tuned to 30HZ etc. Build a deeper box. You'll get louder with less power required from your amp. Simple Box physics, a low power amp can push a sub to it's max excursion limits without having to use alot of current to do so, when the sub is placed inside a large box cavity, compared to the amp having to fight rear cone displacement in a smaller box....just to be as loud. Although freq's above 60HZ can also be labour-ous for an amplifier also. I had the same set-up as you, except I ran my ports through my rear deckofmy car...my box was about the same size as yours...I hit about 139db SPL with only 380-423Watts rms off an old RF amp....and 2 12's.
