Should be sweet. I expect pics. With all of those highs and mids you should probably get some 15s or even 18s ;)
When I finish paying off my truck, expect to see a wall and 2 18s in the back lol

I'm curious as to why those are pointing forward? They sound louder when facing the back hatch and also sound cleaner since you don't hear all of the mechanical noise. I would also recommend a bigger box, those could sound way better. I ran 4 L7 15s in an Explorer in 2006. I'm all about the lows. Every sub I've ever owned has been in a box tuned at no higher than 30 Hz. I'm guessing that box is in the high 30s. If you like nice, deep, clean-sounding bass...tune low. High-tuned boxes sound like crap. They sound loud, don't get me wrong...but they sound like crap.

You have some very nice components. If I were you...I'd go for a bigger box, tuned lower, and also facing backwards. I think you would be much more pleased.

And when you're ready to quit messing around, get some RE or Fi 15's :p

I appreciate the input, not gonna lie I didn't look into the box design much just ordered a premade one do you have any sort of suggestions for better dimensions? I definitely like the lows and from the looks of your set up you do too haha that 18" looks beast

Lol thanks. I would do 4-5 Cubic feet per sub chamber at 30-32hz. That's just me

dexter is right, rear facing subs in a suv sounds better....i've experimented with mine facing different ways over the past few years with different boxes and rear facing does sound better than front facing. my current box has them firing upwards with the ports facing the rear and a powerhorn facing the front

JT...how do you like that setup? i agree with rear facing subs...sound reflects in the back...a box in a box if you will...i'd like the vents facing up or out the sides on mine
