The L7 eights have huge output but are gonna be outta your price range, evn though one would be suffiecent. BTW I ran 4 12's in my swift so there is definatly enough space to do big sysems. I ahve also done 3 10's and kept it all behind the back seat.

I realize that there would be room for larger subs if that was the only thing going back there, but im also placing a computer, dc-dc power supply, and a power inverter in the trunk so cooling is going to become an issue if i start stacking too much stuff on there. also i would like to keep my back seet fairly empty as i do use it fairly often. what kind of price were you talking about for the L7's? and how would those compare to the kickers as far as output?

 The ideas have helped alot so thanks guys!

I have a better idea.  We can give you pages of opinions on what sub is good..or better than the others.  Go out and listen.

Being a hatchback, you will get some decent sound from 8's- i had 79 civic hatch :D

If you have the ability and knowledge, build yourself a folded horn box. Its really complicated, but the outcome is awesome sound.  The box for two 8's is like 9.5in x 14in x 33in  Im making one without the specs of the sub-required to make one.  BUT and a strongly suggest, that you build a box, not buy a prefabbed box.  We can help you on how to do it.

I need quality equipment, feel free to donate.

never even heared of a holded horn box, what is it? i dont think i will be making it but im still curious. right now im actually right now im making a tube enclosure instead of a box as i posted in another thread. i was finally able to find a tube that was large enough to house the 8's. im using about 1/4 spiral carboard used for pouring cement coloums, however because i know that would be way too weak im also going to get a 10" tube and put it around the 8. then im going to fill the gap with either sand, cement or potting tightly packed. any thoughts on this?
