I have looked around a little and thus far have not found any one with a detailed build of a drivers side stealth box for a 10in subwoofer on a 4th gen camaro. If anyone has built one and has some build specs they would be willing to share that would be great.
Thanks,
Luke

There's not really any specifications.
-Tape the entire area with painters tape to protect the carpet or some people use aluminum foil
-Apply mold release or Pam cooking spray
-Lay fiberglass bottom and sides
-Cut MDF front piece to mount sub to
-Fiberglass top piece by taking the panel out of the car and turning it over
-Put it all back in the car and connect the pieces with fiberglass.
-Once secure remove from car and add fiberglass to INSIDE of the box for stability, box should not flex when pushed on.
-Measure volume by filling with packing peanuts if need be.

good info but instead of measureing volume with peanuts i believe you can measure volume by, length x's width x's height.

Have fun doing that with a stealth box.

Anyone have details on making a wook sub box?

What are your goals with this? How much power do you have and for what sub(s)? Some things to consider before designing anything.

Why not just buy a pre-made box from somewhere like Double D Mods? Not that expensive and saves you a lot of hassle.

Seems the largest CU you're going to get in that space is about 0.75 cu ft which kinda sucks since I have a 10" Kicker Comp that calls for at least 1 cu ft (max 2.4 so ideal is probably somewhere in the middle). I'm still half tempted to try it and just see how it does.

Prefab boxes arent the greatest. Especially if your looking for the output gain of a ported box. They're usually made with such a low Vb and when ported, they're tuned too high with minimal port area. If you don't have a lot of power to play with, you're gonna want a larger box to make what power you do have efficient.

With something like .75 cubes you're gonna wanna stick with a smaller woofer. I would actually use something along the lines of a sundown sa8. Smaller sub in the proper enclosure is going to perform better than a larger sub stuffed in s box that's too small.

Since I've never seen a pre-fab ported stealth box, you might want to consider buying one of the sealed enclosure stealth boxes offered by our sponsors and stuffing the box with fiberfill to increase the apparent air space to better match your sub's requirements. Fiberfill can gain you a theoretical maximum of 40% additional apparent air space but it's more common to get about 35% (at 1.75 pounds per cubic foot density). That takes your .75 cubic foot stealth box to just slightly over 1 cubic foot. This is a trick that installers have been using for many years and it's quite effective when you have limited space.

My JL Audio 12W3V3 and JL 500/1 in my fiberglass stealth box bumps really well. I forgot what the overall volume was but I ran it on WinISD and the curve wasn't to bad. With our cars being hatchbacks its louder than I would ever need it.

Here is a build I found while I was looking. This is what I plan to run.
