is there any way it can fit a 12 inch sub? if so im in

I bought a Wagon enclosure in a prior group buy and it is fantastic. Everyone who listens can't believe the output that I get from one 10" woofer.

I give the wagon enclosure a big thumbs up.

I don't suppose you have a matched box for the right side of the wagon?

no sorry, no 12" enclosures, and the 10" ones only come on one side, no dual enclosures.

kevin
www.evo-auto.com

Any idea on when you might have something for the STi?

What is the volume of the wagon box?

any issues with the wagon trunk mat in place? This looks nice, but I have a trunk mat and plan to keep it in the car.

JC

What are the enclosures made out of?
How much do they weigh?
Are they air tight?
are there provisions for dual voice coil subs?

Your link doesn't work (evoauto) are there or will there be futher details available there?

Will most 10's fit?

Where are the suggested mounting points to hold them in place? Pics of this would be great.

The enclosure looks great, I would just like a little bit more information.

Thanks,

the STi stuff is coming, still waiting for the car. it broke this past week, so maybe i will be able to get some time with it while he isnt driving it...

the enclosures are appx. .9cu ft each.

honestly, i have never tried one with a wagon mat inplace, maybe one of the dozens of wagon owners with my enclosure will chime in and comment on that.

the enclosures are made of 1/2" mdf, with a 3/4" mdf baffle, and the woofer countersunk 1/4". the enclosure weight about 16lbs, and they are very air tight :) i dont know what you mean about provisions for dual voice coil woofers, about 99.5% of the time, all that wiring is done within the enclosure anyways. if you would like a second terminal cup in the box, i will cut another one in for you. the only 10" woofer i know of that doesnt fit is the JL 10W7. i tried once to make an additional baffle to make the JL W7 fit, but it just didnt look right when done, so i scrapped that idea. the box mounts with the supplied screws. you basically put the box in place, and screw it straight down from the inside, to the floor. evo-auto.com has never been fully developed, so that is why it hasnt been working. that is being worked on also :)

Can you get to the spare tire without moving the box?

Is there a place to mount the amp?

yes, you can get to the spare tire without moving the box, on both the sedan and the wagon enclosures.

i would recommend mounting amps under either of the front seats. there is plenty of room under there for even large sized amps.

kevin
www.evo-auto.com

Do you guys have a smaller side enclosure for the wagon? Does it need to be that deep?

actually, the wagon enclosure is only like 8-9" deep, so not to bad. i made it that big to fit deeper woofers. you can fit up to a 7" deep woofer in the enclosures.

also, in case i sounded unclear above, regardless of how many enclosures i sell, the price stands, so it doesnt require any number of enclosures for that price. i can sell one, and that will be the price. i have quite a few enclosures on hand right now, so if you pay before the deadline, i will ship on payment. thanks

kevin
www.evo-auto.com

How easily would it be for me to customize the box and make it shallower? I don't think my sub will be 7" deep, and from the pics, the box sticks out a little far into the wagon space for my tastes. If I could get it even with the wheel well, that would be perfect...

i honestly dont think you'd be able to modify an enclosure. and really any 10" woofer worth its salt is going to be around 5" deep anyways, so you wouldnt be saving alot of room.

kevin
www.evo-auto.com

are you making the stealth enclosures for GC8 coupes? (in the rear side panels?)
thanks

I have a wagon box with a 10" Fosgate sub and like it alot. I used hevy duty velcro on the bottom so I can remove it when I race and it's a nice setup.

i do have a few pair of the side panel 8" enclosures if anyone is interested. i will sell them for $250/pr shipped if you are interested.

thanks for the input detroit, glad you like the enclosure.

kevin
www.evo-auto.com

Pics of the side panel 8" enclosures?

i dont think i have any pics of the 8" boxes, only a pic of the finished product in the car, and even that pic i dont have uploaded to the net yet. email me and i'll send the pic directly to you.

kevin
www.evo-auto.com

how stable is this box? will it slide around?

i ship the enclosures with some screws that you can use to mount it down from the inside. once that is done, it wont move at all. others have also used super heavy duty velcro with good results.

ANy idea on the shipping time!!! I so want to get my new sub out of the ugly square box it is in...A 35 year old man should not be this excited about car speakers...

i'm trying to get everything out tomorrow morning, but sometimes UPS doesnt always come to work. sooooo..... if he comes, they will be out tomorrow, if not, wednesday morning.

I can't tell from the pics how far back in the trunk it goes, will the box clear a strut tower bar in the trunk? I have the CF Cusco.
Thanks!

strut bars should fit just fine with my enclosures. they dont go past the strut tower.

i shipped the 2 wagon enclosures today, the sedan will go tomorrow.

Are you still selling these for $135 or is too late?

can you still pull up the panel above the spare tire or does the box block it off?

yes the GB is still open. sorry, i foregot to change the deadline.

with either enclosure, you can still get to the spare tire when you need to.

Thanks to Kevin!
Got my wagon box today... fits like a glove!

Going to put a JL 10w3v2 in there.

I'm waiting on the STi enclosure too Kevin. Hope you can get that done soon.

I got my wagon enclosure last week and put an eD e10o (http://www.edesignaudio.com/ep2/10o.htm) into it, powered by a JL 500/1. The e10o is a bit oversized, so I had to dremel the opening slightly; only took about 10 minutes.

All I can saw is :eek: This replaces an old 12" Hsu Research sub left over from my other car that was in a 2+ ft^2 box. It sounds better AND takes up less space. I highly recomend the e10o for this enclosure.

Still on my list:

1) Make a custom grill (being oversized, a normal 10" grill will not fit)

2) Anchor the box. I have it in place with some industrial velcro currently, but it is not secure enough. I dont want to screw it down from inside the enclosure since the jack lives behind it. I am thinking of rigging up an L bracket that attaches to the cargo hook next to the jack compartment.

Just put it in the center of the tray that sits above the spare tire (mine fit perfectly), or even in the spare tire area. :)

The enclosure is molded to fit on the drivers side. Why whould I put it in the middle of my hatch over the spare tire well ?:confused:

I think he is referring to the jack.

Is the area in the attached that is circled supposed to stick out into the opening where the tailgate is? Its doesn't seem to fit as well as the others I have seen pictures of....or is it just me...

does it fit tight everywhere else??? it should sit just about flush with the piece by the tailgate. does the door shut all the way? ive never heard of that problem, so its hard to diagnos.

kevin
www.evo-auto.com

There is a solid 1.5 inches of the corner sticking out from the car where you can see the back of the box...I tried shoving it back as hard as i can in that recessed area and it just leaves a gap...I need to find a digital camera and take pictures.

please do, email them to me at supersubee@cox.net. thanks.

anyone else with a wagon and my enclosure, is there anything behind the enclosure that needs to be removed for it to fit properly, i cant remember off the top of my head.

kevin
www.evo-auto.com

I just a couple of quick questions.

1. Is it safe to assume that this will fit in my 04 rs?

2. Are they still $135 or did you hit 20 yet?

3. Do I send the paypal to supersubee@cox.net ?

1. yes

2. still $135

3. yes.

I noticed the same issue as BryanH - the box sticks out a bit there and the carpet is not smooth. Not too big of a deal for me but I will take a pic of mine as well.

Paypal'd you for an 03 sedan enclosure :)

i finally got ahold of a tes car to build the STi enclosures. so, i am planning on having an enclosure mocked up the weekend after i get back from vacation. so, hopefully the weekend of january 3-4th. after the pics are up, i will have an GB on them and get them coming shortly thereafter.

To the people who used the heavy duty velcro, where did you get it at?

you can get kick butt velcro at home depot

sweet thanks

Please send me a pm when you have pics of the STi enclosure. Thanks!

alright, i'm back in town now :) plans to work on the sti enclosure this coming up weekend, with pics to follow. the new sti enclosure will also double as the new sedan enclosure, as both cars are identical in the back on the driver side.

allanak, i got your payment and will have your enclosure shipped no later than tuesday morning.

kevin
www.evo-auto.com

this is the way mne fits.

Anuone have pictures of this in a sedan

For those of you who have this, how does it sound and what speaker are you using?

THe sound is great...I am using a Memphis woofer. Its the fit that is not quite right.

I wonder if maybe I got sent a sedan enclosure....

Does yours have a big piece missing out of the center toward the back? If so it is the one for the sedan. It is clearance for the trunck hinges.

that is definetly the wagon enclosure, its the only one meant to fit on the driver side right now. by looking at the pic as it is, i kinda looks like it is not pushed back all the way, but i could be wrong. can you send me better pics to my email so i can see what we are talking about. the design for the wagons hasnt changed in a long time, and to hear one doesnt fit kinda has me baffled. my email address is supersubee@cox.net. the enclosure does stick out a tiny bit, like a 1/4" or so, but that is definetly more than that.

bellmen, send me your email addy and i'll forward some pics over to you of the enclosure installed.

Anyone know if a JL Audio 10W7 would fit? I'm running 3 10W6's now and would like similar performance out of this box. Any suggestions for a sub for the wagon box that is comparable to the 10W7?

no it wont

Are both side symetrical so if you flipped the box around wouldnt it fit on the passenger side?? Just curious.

the 10w7 will not fit in any of my enclosures, it is just to deep.

on a side note, the STi enclosure is 90% done, so i will end this GB now and begin a new thread for the new enclosure. thanks for all that purchased enclosures.

kevin
www.evo-auto.com

Is the Sti enclosure going to be different than the WRX one, or would this be an updated version for the WRX as well?
JL 10W3s work ok though, correct?

the new enclosure will be the new sedan enclosure as well as the STi enclosure. the main difference is that it will now be on the drivers side of the car, instead of the passenger. i just installed the new one tonight with a 10w6v2 in it, and it sounds awesome!!! if hte w6v2 fits, a w3 should be no problem.

kevin
www.evo-auto.com

evo - sorry, I just sent you an email thinking this GB was done. Anyone using this with a JL Audio 10W0? Have any comparison to a 12" sub in another enclosure? I'm afraid the 10" won't be enough.

Kevin, glad it's almost done. Can't wait to get it, as the other box in my trunk is taking up too much space. ;)

-Mike-

I've been waiting for the "Sedan / STi" group buy to ask, but I'll go ahead and post my question here. Is it possible/feasible to port your box or is it not suited for this? I'm asking because I don't know if one 10 is going to be loud enough in my trunk with the 180 watts I have available for it. I know that ported boxes tend to be louder given the same sub/power level.

Ported enclosures need to be made bigger though.

That would require a completely different box design.

I have a question on this... Polk reccomends .66 cu ft for the box for a momo sub, but this one is .9cu ft will that compromise sound quality?

alright, i'm back from CES :)

i would love to do a ported enclosure, i just have to get time to get one figured out. there are ways to get the added efficency of a ported enclosure, without making the enclosure huge. but that will have to be for another day.

generally a manufacturer will recommend the smallest size of enclosure for their woofer, cause thats what most people want. however, i have never seen a woofer that didnt pick up some kind of performance gain from having a larger enclosure. you could also add some wood to the inside of the enclosure to take up space, but i would try the initial setup first.

i will start the GB monday or tuesday, so please take any additional comments there once it begins, thanks.

kevin

Got a problem with the gc8 enclosure...I can't seem to get it to fit. Does anyone know if the JDM and USDM trunks are different? It looks like its hitting some wires in the upper right side of the trunk. Maybe I'm putting it in wrong? Am I supposed to take out the trunk lining or something? Please help!

Sent you guys an email.

wires??? i dont recall ever seeing any wires anywhere in the vicinity. it is possible there is a difference in the trunks. if anyone has a USDM GC8 that is watching this thread, could you verify if there is a wiring harness on that side or if its on the driver side??? i remember running my rear pin switch wires with a large loom on the drivers side of my car when i had it, i wonder if that loom switches sides on the RHD cars?

kevin
www.evo-auto.com

Hmm...maybe I should just cut that part of the box off?

Did you guys get my email? I am looking to buy and just need a response. :)

Dman, where did you email to??? supersubee@cox.net is my email addy, hit me up and i'll get you taken care of.

wrx sti, you may have to, i've never sold anything to someone with a JDM GC8 before, how much are we talking?

kevin

OK, tried again! :)

can you make enclosure for the left and right side of the trunk? I have 2 10" polk momo's I need to mount.

Thanks.

I just thought I'd let you guys see a ported enclosure for the wagon.... one JL 10 inside. Fires towards the side of the car.

i would like to buy a wagon enclosure for a 03 wrx

Tried cutting that part off. Still doesn't fit because of the height. I guess I'll have to shave off about .5-1 cm off the top.:P

I guess now we know that the JDM and USDM GC trunks are a little different?

sorry to hear that, i wouldnt have ever thought there would have been that much of a difference.
