That sub looks much nicer then the one Subaru is offering for the BRZ. 8" is a better fit!

For 1100, I'd honestly look for a custom solution.

Honestly, a good shop can give you better components, install, and a custom box for less.

I sent an email to JL Audio to inquire about a stealthbox, haven't heard anything back as of yet. I'm hoping they do something similar to that box. A solid 8" that sounds good and doesn't take up much trunk space would be perfect. 10" really seems like your forcing it in when glassed in to the side pocket of the trunk.
