What frequency for a Grand Marquis?

Well guys, looks like the wifee is getting her van back to her self and I'm gonna switch the system over to a mid 90's Grand marquis. I know ... it's a grandpas car, but won't be for long. It's got a pretty big trunk. This should be interesting.

So I was wondering if anyone has ever competed with one? Or knows someone who has. Roughly what frequency do they like?

Thanks in Advance!

Nope, just some paddle....

I think I'm going to throw a 4th or 6th order in this biatch.

lol, I was talking to him earlier about it. Saw a couple pics too. I'm not sure if I'm going to wall it right away. Might try a 6th order out the trunk first. Theres over 17cubes in there.

whatever you do, you need to bypass the trunk entirely and fire right into he cabin. A Bandpass might be pretty interesting. I've cut out a rear deck before and fired a pair of 13W7's up through it at an angle and it worked pretty well.

But they have a floffy headliner, doors don;'t close very tight so the seals all fart. It'll be a hell of a challenge

I can do anything with the rear deck lid and till stay in Street C right? As long as the back of the seat remains properly attached?

I was thinking something like porting the front wave against the back of the seat and the rear wave out the deck lid. The subs would fire up from the back of the trunk....

I'll post a sketchup of the idea once I get the car home today. I've got an idea, just don't know exactly how I'm going to execute it.
