I think we have one or two people a month that want a box designed for them. This isn't that kind of site and I never have really know that kind. We might run some calculations to check if you have enough space but if you want us to run out, measure our trunks, look up the specs on your subs, do the algebra to solve for the airspace minus displacement and then wipe for you you will not like my choice of paper.

I've head that type rs like big boxes. I've heard one in a 3 cu box tuned to 32 hz and it sounded way better than what I expected.
the measurements for my trunk were (I think) 36 wide at the closest point, 15 in tall with the stock mach amps, and around 37 deep. but I don't know how big of a box youll be able to fit through the trunk.

32 wide x 13 tall x 17 deep with 3/4 mdf would be slightly over 3 cubes with the displacement of the sub. thats without displacement of port though also. I'm not positive that would fit but I'm guessing you could shoehorn it in. you can find port and volume calculators online also. this is the one I use most. http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/boxcalcs.asp

ttocs I know this site isn't really for people designing boxes but I've asked a lot on here also because I couldn't find too many people on stereo forums to ask about what will fit in a mustang. All the people on stereo forums usually are doing something really custom if their working with a mustang so its hard to find out how large of a regular box will fit through the trunk opening.
