well i know it is impossible to tell for sure! but if someone could give me a guess on what kinda db i will hit in a couple weeks that would be great. My vehicle is a 1997 GMC Sonoma extended cab. 2 12" Fusion Powerplants ppsw12h in a 2.2cuft ported to 38hz box (each chamber) insulation stappled to each wall! then a fusion pp-am20001 amplifier wired into 1ohm pushing the subs. using 12gauge speaker wire and 4 gauge amp and power. Using a JVC head unit. I know u cant tell for sure. just give me some kind of guess. im hoping to get a respectable number.

I predict somewhere between 85db and 160db.  It is impossible to guess. If you get a legit meter score, be sure to post it here. ------------- Support the12volt.com

The number I guess is...
The number of protons in a copper molecule multiplied by the number of electrons in a copper molecule, and then divided by the port length (inches) of a 3.5" diameter port used to tune a 6 cubic ft box to 22.23Hz.
p.s.- don't forget to subtract the port volume from the box volume.

136.08 db and thats rounded slightly from the port length, and that is assuming you are talking about copper in its natural state not an isotope that would have more or less pretons and elctons then the standard 29 in ntural copper, sad thing is i had the time to calculate it

We are just messing with you. Like DYohn said, it is impossible to tell. Post some pictures of your install and you might get some tips from the guys on here.
