Read the instructions that came with your pioneer subs. They'll specify the optimum box size, then add 15-25% to that if you want a smooth bass response. Generally the manufacturer specs call for a box with a high Q instead of a flat Q.

Hey man we have the same car and let me give you some advise. These boxes are harder than hell to build the front of the box has to be curved to the sump. This is what makes it a pain in the a$% to build. I tried to build one for two weeks or so and finally got P$#%ED and went and bought one it only run me 100.00$$$ brand new. Forget about building one and just buy one much easier.
