Just got all of this put together in my 2013 Cruze and it hits so, so much harder than my old 500W RF amp/prefab box that fell apart.
Friend did the install on the amp and properly set/tuned the gain way down so as to not harm the single sub (got this amp on a great deal and because I'll be moving to a double 12" setup in the future).
Getting no more than 1000W RMS at my lowest rise, lots of trunk rattle but expected it being a trunk setup in a smaller-ish car. Looking into deadening/decoupling solutions soon enough.
Custom box has a volume of 2.38ft3 after displacement with a port area of ~30in2 tuned to 34Hz~. Hit 139.3dB on an SPL meter right after install/tuning.
