Its not the ideal way to do it as its not really deep enough to be an effective encolsure.

if its anything like my 13 W6 then you will need to raise the floor more than a few inches as they are deep buggers and the box needed is quite big!

sorry for bringing this thread back again...
but is their any benefit from having one sub in comparison to two??
i know about the whole thing with speakers cancelling each other out etc.....i do physics.
but will there be better sound quality from 2 10 inch subs on either side or just one 12 inch in the wheel well?
