Just be careful it doesn't cause too much hearing loss.

I wanted to do the same but why leave empty box space? So that's why I went with 3 12's . It was already taking up space. I have everything setup to sound nicely not to pound and rattle my car. I also got a original JL Audio bass regulator installed right beside my seat so that I can crank it to whatever bass I want. I'll post pics soon!
