With a solid sub like that it may be hard to get rid of those vibrations because the sound resonance is directed towards the panel, even with sound deadening material. Difficult to get rid of with my 10W7.

But..... on the other hand, the box looks AWESOME! Do you know what cubic feet it ended up being?

Normally you would use something like No-rez to line the inside of the enclosure to help stop cabinet resonance, but since this one only has basically two flat sides, it won't really be possible. Lining the inside with dynamat and using an appropriate amount of poly-fill should get it sounding clean.

supra doesnt have a 4 banger FWD positioned motor, that should be the dead give away, and the wing too supra has a much higher arched wing.
