So heres my box and subs
http://m1258.photobucket.com/albumvi...l?o=0&newest=1
As of right now I have 2 kicker comp 10"s wired to a hifonics 1000.1d mono block 1000 watt amp. and well I'm looking for a little more. I was looking into the 10" cvrs DVC 2ohm. I would most likely have to add a ring spacer so the vrs will fit. My question is will the vrs be much of a difference from my comps that I have now?
Thanks!!

My budget isn't very much maybe $250 I can get the kicker vrs for $80 a piece and I wouldn't have to change my box by much maybe a 1/3 inch spacer ring.

There won't be much sound difference. Go with whatever you want.
Just learning.

So then what if I were to create 2 custome separate boxes maybe to fit a 12" under the seat would I gain anything? More bass?

you only have so much airspace under your seat. if your subs are not matched with the right amount of airspace that they need then nothing will ever sound right.
its not about size or amount of speakers, its about how well each piece works together as a whole system. that box might have 1.5Ft^3 total to work with and that's a generous estimate. so finding a set of subs that are suited for that amount of airspace is what you need to do. even if you take a sub out and just use one good sub instead of two low quality subs you may still come out ahead because the airspace will work better with the sub.

Thanks Soundsecurity,
That's what my thought is is maybe just creating one box myself for a better quality sub. What do you suggest? I have already raised the seat so there is more room than the original height. The long box I have now goes from 6" high, by 12" in length to 4" in height all the way across to the other sub were it is 6" high by 12" wide. So it's built like two separate small boxes but are connected as one. We're the cutout section is for it to slide under my seat it's connected. The box in length is a total of 48". It kinda looks like this []___[]. We're the "[]" are my subs. And the "___" is my running length. The "[]" is 6" high by 12" and the "____" or cross section is 4" high then there's another "[]" 6" by 12". The cut outs for my seat mount.

if the seat's raised then use that extra space. you have to measure the dimensions under the seat for how big you can build the box. account for the airspace that the wood will use and take out the displacement of the subwoofer you plan to use. this will give you an overall usable airspace and depending on how much extra space you end up with then you might still be limited to a single 10. i would hope for enough space for a decent 12 because thats what will probably make the biggest difference in sound for you. whatever you end up having to do i would definitely build the new box as a downfire box with the sub facing the floor and leave about a 2 inch gap between the sub and the floor.
