Yes for your application I would recommend taking into consideration the speaker's own displacement, because as you can tell it needs to be an exact amount and you aren't going to have much leeway. You might want to double check the manual though and see if they mention that at all.

For that sub I'd probably say 3/4" or 1" MDF. Obviously the 1" will be better but it is gonna weigh more; for most people that's not really an issue though. Just make sure when you're doing your calculations for volume and box dimensions that you take into account the thickness of the MDF that you plan to use. The enclosure calculators on this site have such a feature built-in I believe.

Actually the RF specs already include the sub's displacement. Their enclosure dimension's of 14x15x10 (HxWxD) are using 1" MDF. Keep that in mind when you build the box. When figuring out the total interior volume (not including the displacement) you'll want to use apx 0.74 for your grand total volume.
