Ext cab subs and box
Who has an extended cab that pounds without moving up the seat? If it's possible to do. I'm looking to get a custom ported box made for 1 12 but the guy at the shop said it might not be the bass I am looking for. To give you an example I had a 97 z28 with a ported box for a 12 that you could hear for a mile away coming. I know I won't get that but I'd like to get close to it what do I need?

12's are hard to fit under the back seat of an ECSB. You will run into depth issues unless your using a shallow mount sub. 10's are about the biggest (tall wise) that you can fit under the rear seat. 10's will allow you to keep a stock height seat and have enough room for the 10 to move with out rubbing the carpet or the seat depending how you have them setup. You MIGHT be able to front fire them but its tight. I know 8's will front fire with no problem but I don't think you'll be in for that.
If you went with two nice 10's you will probably get the sound your looking for. It probably won't be as loud as your camaro because of the reverb you get with the glass hatch and trunk space but thats because of vehicle design not lack of cone area. Its something to consider.

Idk what kind of subs you're trying to go with. Or if it matters to you if it's sealed or ported... But, I used two Kicker CVR 12s in an upfire sealed box that i made and they pounded pleanty hard with the seat down or up, didn't matter. Plus i didn't have to do the seat raise mod. I'll say that it was loud enough to make the wipers vibrate like crazy and made the roof resonate hard enough to where you couldn't set a drink ontop of the cab. How much do you want to spend?

Thanks guys I could live with lifting it an 1" or so it's not like I sit back there.
The reason why I was thinking 1 12 is that I will put the sub on one side an use the whole length for air space I guess instead of splitting it for two. I don't want to spend than 600 for the custom box and sub to match box. I have 12oo in mids and highs and two amps already.
DREKS- does the Box contuine behind seats for airspace? I would actually like to do a box like that. It's just looks way better in a SC

The box didn't cost but $20 to make
