I would have to say that sub is amazing. It plays low like no other sub i have ever heard. we just throw it into a box and put it in a in a toyota pickup. first listen it was awsome and it was very musical too. so far it hit 138dbs but we are trying some. ill keep you guys updated on our results.

Was it a sealed, ported box? You have a box layin around that will handle a sub that deep and heavy??

screw that.
roll up the windows in your car, cut an 11.75" hole in the roof, and silicone the sub into the roof of the car. Use the entire car's cabin as a sealed enclosure. Feed the sub about 5kilowatts, and crank 'er up.
You'll own that block!

x2. There's not a 12" sub in the world that needs 6^3ft to get loud. 3-3.5 would be plenty for that sub. Nice score for an enclosure tuned to 28hz. I'd go with a 45hz tune in the same sized enclosure and see what kinda numbers you put up.
