Ok, as of right now I have 2 Infinity Reference Series speakers(other 2 are on the way) 2 12" subs in bandpass enclosure(all the "pro's" told me it would be better for an open area cars, better than sealed) On the bandpass the ports are on the same side as the plexiglass window and subs facing my rear door, for better SPL or "boominess" should I aim the ports and subs toward the ceiling or the rear tailgate?
 






Rear. Many people have asked this here. Everybody has an oppinion, but the majority seems to go for pointing at the rear.

But, you can just put it in and move it around till you see how you like it.:redexp:
 






Definitely rear-facing. Because low frequencies have such a long wavelength, you want them to have to travel a fair distance to get the full effect. Facing them towards the rear forces them to first travel the distance to the tailgate, then bounce off and travel to your ears. Firing them straight up just makes them disperse around the interior...
