The 4080/boxology sub box, I hear, was designed specifically for a 12w6. Assuming the W7 even fits in this box (the magnet goes pretty deep, that may be an issue) it still wouldn't be optimal displacement-wise. I can say with a high degree of certaintly that it would not hit as hard as your current setup.

It will not. The mounting depth is too shallow. You will more than likely blow your 12W7. W7's are very sensitive to cubic space requirements. Too little and you'll blow your coil(too much positive pressure). Too much and you'll blow your coil(too much negative pressure).
The 4080 box was originally made for Polk and the JL 12W6V2. They both have the same cubic space requirements(1.5 cubic ft.). Try a single 12W6V2 with a ported setup and your W6 will sound airy. Running two 12W6V2's with a ported setup, that's a different story; it's probably the cleanest sounding setup I've ever had(in my 2GS)

I email them and they. Hit me right back the shop is here in Houston and the box is renamed boxology . I got one and a w7 will not fit nor will my type R alpine . Had to put a w6 in there . It hits but my box I got for 32 bucks shipped to my door bangs just as hard if not harder. It looks nice but not worth the 400 buck investment IMO . If these were 199 would be worth every penny just cause they fit in our cars. But for 400 I expected more

better off with the box from zenclosures on ebay, that guy is local and has been hand building boxes for 350zs and Gs for the longest time he built the box my bros 2 10 w3s were in for the Altima Coupe. He has 2 or 3 different designs for the 2IS and it fits nice and flush in the back which leaves a ton of trunk space. If you message him he can even customize for certain specific subs if your give him a heads up.

I've seen some other boxes on ebay but I want a side/stealth box.
