How much port area are you hoping to get? Going with a clamshell may be the ticket, depending on how much volume you need.

The only other suggestion I have is to do what Steve Meade did a little while back: use 16" PVC pipe or sonotube for enclosures, and use the area between tubes as the port. Definitely not the easiest to design or tune, but it may give you enough port area to have all 4-15s on the same plane (seeing that you only have subs and port, no dead space). However, it may be tough to get enough volume (in the pipe itself) seeing that we don't have alot of depth in the backseat.
It is an idea though.

Or you could sell 3 of your subs, build yourself a functional 8th order, and curb-stomp everyone like Alan Dante did this year

I still think a clam will be your best bet. If only our cars had a little more room to play with....

LOL, I know. Dante might be the only person in dbdrag to have ever successfully figured out the 8th order for SPL. Who knows how long it took to get it to work (years?).
But it was an idea

Neither can the rest of us. I'm just ashamed it took us this long to get you to do it.
