Which of these should I do for the best bass?

I am much like many other G owners who don't have much trunk space to begin with and don't want to take up all of it with a box so I was thinking about two choices. If you know about systems and how they sound please give me your imput.

1. I was thinking about purchasing a box from 4080 on the drivers side of the trunk. I heard you couldn't use the passenger side so we'll assume I'm putting in One 10 Inch JL Audio Woofer in my car with an appropriate amp(haven't got that far yet)

2. My other option for saving space was to completly take out the back panel where my 6x9 are currently and have a custom back panel board made to fit either 2 8 inch JL woofers or 3 8 inch woofers. This would also allow me to keep my trunk space.

Which option do you guys think would sound the best and look the best. Thanks again.

4080 box ALL THE WAY. Man, I read so many awesome reviews for this box, finally broke down and bought one, it's perfect. Fit, finish, sound, excellent buy.

Just do it. Buy the 4080 box. Awesome.

Have you considered putting a 10" subwoofer under the trunk floor board and keeping all of your trunk space? There's a few members who have done this by taking out the factory amp and placing a custom box there.

I like that one, there's a thread somewhere about it. Where would you mount the amp though?

man those 10w6 are expensive. honestly i have a rockford series one SVC running about 150W in my 4080 box and just the other day i went to a local audio shop played loud and clear for the manager he thought i was running much more expensive equip. I'm planning to swap out the RF sub for a 10" Infinity Kappa Perfect. Not into spending alot of cash right now.

Sorry to ramble but 4080's boxes are well worth the money looks custom fits perfectly and can make cheap subs sound like big dogs i'd hate to think how hard a 10W6 would hit in that thing. OMG!!!!
