man your trunk must be sealed. Forum member bmw4life has the 2 kicker s12 l5 and that thing pounds. you should try it out

EDIT: btw, what box do you use? a ported box will give you more bass that a sealed one. I did a comparison between my car and another forum member with the same JL sub and makes a big difference.
Do you have a ski pass? I think my car does not have fold down seats or a ski pass so its hard for the bass to get into the cabin.
I had the same issue in my E39 540i... i had to cut out a custom ski pass to get sound into the cabin.
