4 12's? Ive never seen a box for 4 subs for an fbody, the only way you would be able to do it is if you fiberglassed an enclosure, and even then I dont know where you could fit 4 12s unless you build a box for the backseats.

You'll have to have one custom made or make one yourself, and its taking on a semi difficult project building the right box with the right port area. It has been done though.

Hope you know what would be required to run that much power and how to properly do it.

You will NOT have enough room to build a ported box that will sound half decent. You will have to go sealed. I had 3 12's for a long time in a box I made, and it takes a little modification for that. 2 12's in a ported box will be just as loud, and not rattle the car to pieces like a sealed one would.

Any pics of old setup? Doesn't seem like 4 12's in the hatch would have enough airspace.

If you want crazy sound then just get one TC Sounds/Audiopulse LMS Ultra.

Ha, TC Sounds subs are ridiculously expensive and can get subs just as good for cheaper. But it sounds like he's got the whole setup minus the box, but he'll have to make the box since no one manufactures a custom four 12's box.

Name me a production subwoofer as awesome as the LMS Ultra that can also be put in a small box... for ANY price. It has something like 38mm of ONE-WAY, LINEAR Xmax. If the guy wants to put 4 lower quality subwoofers like Type R in there, then he's welcome to, but that's just bad, IMO. You'll be wasting so much space and adding so much more weight, and Type R doesn't even have great sound quality.
