Or is the second step not necessary when using the low pass filter on the underseats during calibration and I can assign a true sub channel to the trunk sub?

I'm trying to avoid doing a million trial abd v error calibrations and start with pre established best practices.
Yes you leave the sub hooked up. If that workaround does not give you satisfactory results, you can try the y-splitter method where you do not assign a sub (calibrate only with the midbass running all the way down to 20hz, then splitting the sub and midbass signals at the amps.
