I think completely sealed enclosures sound best. I also once had a ported and plexiglass competition box, and it would rattle my trunk even with the extensive dynamat extreme I have. I recommend ported over what you have now. I think the plexiglass is useless in some applications, but this is just my .02. Good luck!
