Unregistered guest | ok then, I Listen to Rap, lotsa Bass, i want it to be loud, and to shake the sh*t outta me whats my best choice, and what size of box should i go with |

If your jensen spec. size said 0.75 cu inch then you will work around that. I suppose you have 2 subs so double the 0.75 to get 1.50 cu in. Now go to the link below and work around your car with measurements and see what you like till you get the correct space. Now it doesnt have to be exact like between 1.4 and 1.6 is fine.
