It looks good! I might suggest putting the specs that the speaker should have to sound good with the boxes in the thread. Not all speakers sound good in a sealed box or with the specific volume you've given.

The sub I used when building this box was an 10 inch MTX Thunder 7500. The box is 0.71ft3 which is what many 10 inch subs in a sealed enclosure would operate idealy in. Since it is a sealed enclosure you have a little +/- room with the air space. If some ones sub called for 0.6 or 0.8 ft3 of airspace this box would be fine. Only the most hardcore of audiophiles would notice the difference. And unless some one is build a system designed for SPL, they wouldn't notice a difference either.
The mounting depth is 7 1/8". And overall diameter is 10 7/8". Any subs falling within those parameters will work.
I don't have any plans to mass produce any ported enclosures at this time. With ported boxes the specs and tuning need to be exact to the specific sub that the customer would be using. So any boxes like these would be made on a one-off basis and thus the price would be more. But if someone wanted one I would make it.

More updates:
The dual 10" sub boxes are now done and ready. 1.43ft3, sealed, mono chamber. Sorry the pics are crappy, the lighting in my garage sucks and the cars filthy.

No, its easy to fit in the trunk. The actual enclosure and the carpeted panel are two seperate peices. You just put in the box first then put in the panel and attach it from the inside of the box.
