Building a ported box?

Just came across a pioneer premier 3002 d2 3500 watt max 1000 rms ... I have it in a sealed box right now and wanting to build a box .... usually my friend helps me (his girl is pregnant and no help from him )anyways its going to be 2.0 cubic feet that's as bout as big as I can get in my honda ... I want to know how to make the port .... had someone tell me just make it 3 inches but im not sure

it all depends on what you want it tuned to and if the port is sharing a wall with the box. whoever told you 3 inches didnt tell you much because the port has a height width and length. you can look at th re box calculator http://reaudio.com/box.php but be careful it sometimes isnt right so you could also try the torres calculator its free http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/38791-torres-box-tuning-calculator/

You might be better off leaving it in a sealed box. Ported boxes need to be made just right or you'll be wasting your time. Download WinISD. It's a subwoofer system modeling program that's free. You'll need to find the T/S parameters for the speaker online though, or call Pioneer and get it from them. Then you'll be able to mess around with box designs and see what works for you.
