You need to talk to Blue LEDz if you want SPL. He can tell you this best box for whatever subwoofer you are using or plan on using. He has one 10 and that thing is LOUD! It rated 146.7 db in his 2000 Protege in a 6th order band pass box. As for me, mine are pretty loud in a sealed box, but plan on going with a ported one for even more low end and loudness.

Yeah I know how to design and make boxes, all I need is the test tone that the 1st gen owners run for peak SPL

I need to design my box first thats why I'm asking now I just need a good place to start out with.
