Yeah, just stick w/ the box from ZeroChief...most cuts and pieces, but largest airspace.

The foam idea is a good one, but I've never done fiberglass. I'm either doing ZeroChiefs box, or a slight addition in order to get the box to around .70. The guy who helped me build my box is a member of Sound Illusions, so I'm waiting for a final opinion from the stereo guru guys as to my latest idea and subwoofer choice. http://forum.soundillusions.net/30-c...5.html?t=68335 Just adding more people to the confusion

Is there a place where I can get the dimentions of a stealth box?
Or something like it? Is there a "how to make a stealthbox" DIY? I have a friend that thinks he can make one for me.

http://www.xoutpost.com/bmw-sav-foru...installed.html This is the closest in dimensions and airspace to the stealth enclosure, but it definately requires a lot of cuts. I'm going to do something similar to this box, w/ a slight addition in airspace if you follow the Sounds Illusions forum link in the past above.

I just ordered my Kicker L5 8" after much debate and thought about what would work better than using the Pioneer shallow that most others have used. I chose the L5 8" due to the general belief that the square sub gives as much cone surface as a 10" round sub, and w/ it being dual voice coil, it'll run my monoblock amp at 2ohms, so I'll definately be getting the most power from it.
