| Anyone know the cutout size for 4" PSP ports? I don't trust myself with a jigsaw and i've been resining my box the past few days and don't want to ruin it so router precision would be best for me. |

| Yep I know that. I left one side resin free. Don't want an uneven surface to do a routing or I get a funked up looking circle lol. Hopefully this is my magic 150 box |

| i think with the flare on mine it was about 6'in cutout if not you can always get some plumber sealent glue an gorilla tape. i was 6 db's away from a 50 last year with one 15 an about 2000 watts prolly more like 1500 after rise an such, yesterday i did a 141.5 on a sb run with one 12, one batt, an a aq1200.1 in a 3cube box. not bad really for a box that wasn't tested in my car an not knowing what song it likes. gonna be in the shop in the next few months. |

| 6 1/2" speaker template with a nice round over works perfect for 4" pnr port cut out. I've also had good luck in trunks with subs up ports back, basically 1/2 of a crx box, keep the box as low as possible. I've also heard good things about port and subs up all the way at the back of the trunk. |

| i knew it was 6 something cause i used a boot from a alpine type s, still i th ink my 141 was a good number considering it was sub an port back an the box was built for 2 12's, an one speaker cut out was covered lol i think sub back an port to the side is louder in my car though. |

| Got one of those for my plunge router. I found out today when building my box that my 4 spoke baskets have different cutouts one is 9 1/4 and the other is 9 5/16 |
