I finally found a ported box so I can fit two 12 inches in my car but dont know which way I should place the box?

I have two 12 inch alpine type R's good for 2000w rms between the two of them. I have a 2015 camaro and the trunk is extremely small. Ive never been a big fan of sealed boxes so I found a ported box thats custom made for my car. I can either order the box so the subwoofers are firing towards my trunk or towards the front of my car, I'd prefer it to be facing towards my trunk but I dont know anything about airspace and all of that.

  • The box is supposed to be designed properly for the sub for optimal output and sound quality. It's not supposed to be some random box you find on the internet.

    Face it towards the trunk. You'll get more kick, more bass, more boom.

    Muscle cars usually have very small trunks. Especially if you have the convertible camaro. The 2016 challenger and mustang also has a small trunk.

    Face them toward the back of the car.

    Type R's work well in 1.4-1.5 net cubic feet, 12-18 sq in of port tuned in the low to mid 30's.
