I was wondering if there was anything different in the way inverted subs were wired.

Usually they are inverted for cosmetics. if you have 2 inverted subs, then wire as you usually would, but if you wanted say, 1 sub inverted, and 1 sub normally mounted, then you would have to adjust the phase on the inverted sub, so that it's inphase with the other one.

one other thing, depending on how accurate you design the box, and how picky you are about the internal volume, you might want to get the volume of the cone. I say this because inverting the sub(s) allows you to bypass calculating the displacement of the sub when designing the box, but some people foget that with a concave cone in the sub, you are adding to the interior volume of the box. just a thought, cheers
