I'm going to NOLA next May for work. I'll help you measure the volume of your enclosure.

But that means unvelcroing(sp) it from the trunk, unscrewing the sub and pulling out the polyfill.

Polyfill isn't doing a damn thing for ya since it's a fiberglass box bud. Wouldn't you like to know that your enclosure is the correct size for your sub? If it's too large or small, you can actually damage the woofer.

He don't care. He's all about looks over function.

Ah well, I thought the polyfill would've helped. As for the size of the enclosure, now you got me a bit worried.
Nelson, STFU.

You should be worried. Just because it's an enclosure, it doesn't mean that it's good for your sub. Drivers have different suspension systems (stuff or loose) for the type of enclosure they're designed for. If the enclosure it too large or small, it will affect how the driver moves. Ultimately, you will have lateral movement in the voice coil, which results in heat and ultimately failure.
Look up the Thiele Small parameters of your sub and measure your enclosure, taking into account that your enclosure needs to be 80% of the recommended volume because it's made out of fiberglass. If you're lucky, the enclosure will be too big and you'll only need to take up extra space. It's super easy to fix that problem. Just text me and I'll tell you how.
If the enclosure is too small, you're kinda fucked and I would recommend starting over.

So, then your range would be 0.528-0.80 cubic feet.

I suspect I have slightly more volume than that currently.

Indeed. A buddy also happened to have a sheet of MDF from an old project. Free fix in my future.
