15" Kicker L7. Box help?

[MisterDeadeye]

Hey, I've got an '08 15" Kicker L7 and a Power Acoustik BAMF-2000/1D amp. I'm in need of specs for a ported box that won't be too small. My friend's got an Impala with a 3 cubic foot box, and the sub doesn't have enough room. I don't want that to happen to me. The trunk seems really small to me, though.

Forgot to mention I've got an '03...

I dont see how 3 cubic feet isnt big enough for an L7 15...that seems like its about right..possibly jus a hair small...maybe his port isnt right for the sub..

have you looked at the kicker website? it should give you the specs you need

Min Rec Vented Box Volume (CU. Ft., Liters)** 3.0, 85.0
Max Rec Vented Box Volume (CU. Ft., Liters)** 6.0, 169.9

Looks like 3 cubes is the min... good luck trying to fit in 6 cubes if you want the max... lol...

Yeah, I'm aware of the recommended size of the box. I was wondering HOW to design the box to achieve the size. I was hoping for at least 4.5 or so.

i would make a template using cardboard and trace out the trunk. to get the most out of the space you would have to build a box inside the trunk.

Here is what a 2.7 cube for a 15 looks like...

Now from experience i can say you should be able to get a 4 cubic foot box in...if each measurement is percise...the box i was haven trouble with was atleast 5 cubic feet an it was REAL close to goin..but jus a hair too much.
