Yes they will have good sq and spl. Those are good subs. As for your sealed or ported question, are you looking for more sq, or spl. How much room do you have in your car? Sealed is gonna be punchier and IMO have better sq than a ported box. If ported boxes are built almost perfectly they can have almost better sq than sealed, but I still prefer sealed for sq. Ported will yield more spl usually, but the sound is generally boomier, and the tune is gonna make a diff. in which frequency's sound better.

well i have a 12W3D4 and i put it in a 2.5 cft ported box and it slammed really hard at really low freqs. i tuned it to 28 hz but you dont have that room. I did have it in a hatchback Q-logic sealed box and it still sounded great at low freqs.
