If your using four inch aeros 12.56 square inches of port. (2x2 x 3.14)

area has nothing to do with the length?

length only effects tuning?

Yes area does have to do with port length and yes port length only effects tuning but you need to account for the flare in the length and the program they have accounts for it.

so how would i figure the total area?

i have a box by FC that i got from mike and it has 3 4 inch areos

IIRC its 4.5 cubes and tuned to 40 - i was messing around with that calc and trying to figure out a way to lower the tuning without mangling the box

but i would also like the option to put back to 40 or higher if need be

i guess i am trying to find a way to change tuning for daily and maybe go back higher if i go decide to go to a comp or get metered or something

If your asking how you find the usable port area its the formula I showed you for the 4 inch aeros. If you remove one port youll be around 33 hz. So if this is what you want you would take the one port out and have a removable plate to seal it when you only use two aero ports. How much power are you going to be using on the box?

most likely a RD3250

but if i take out one port - would that leave me with too little port area for a 15?

1 4inch aero would be too little for a 15. you should do at least 2.

if you got the space, go for the 4 3inch aeros.

Hes not asking to use one Chad. Youll be on the border line with 2 aero ports but it should work.
