i think 1/8 in will flex to much to get good sound. you will only gain an inch h/w/l in extra space. you can build a sealed box out of 3/4in mdf for best sound. seald boxes don't need neer the space as a ported or bandpass. not as loud but i think it sounds way better. alot tighter sounding

i wouldn't go with the set up either. in my ten years of working on vehicles ive never seen the 22ret in a vehicle. besides, the work you would have to do to set it up you could drop an even more powerful fi engine in there that is easier to find.
