u need an amp that does around 600wrms @ 2ohms
600wrms is good enough power
4g kit will do
i would choose ported though sealed gives a nice all around sound - but do slot ported around 1.9-20cuft after sub\port displacement tuned around 33hz for good deepness & quality

if u cant build ur own box hire Logan on this forum to build u 1 fairly cheap .......

so do these look like good specs for the box i want. i plan to buuild it in school in my wood tech class with the teachers help.
Overall External Dimensions
Width 16" (40.64cm)
Height 26" (66.04cm)
Depth 15" (38.10cm)
Box Properties
Type Single Ported
Shape Square
Comment 1 Vent (1.5 inches high x 14 inches wide x 28 inches long)
Enclosure details 2.20 cu. ft. (62.30 liters)

So can i make a 4 ohm sub a 1 ohm sub on my amp bc i have a kenwood 900wrms @1ohm stable but its only 500wrms @ 4 ohm

if its dual 4 ohms you will be able to wire it to 2 ohms.

Does anyone have any better plans for a box i drive a ford escort sedan and i dont need any trunk space. I could really use all the deminsions including material list so i can construct the box in wood tech.
