JL 12w6v2-D4 ported/sealed vs SBP15 infinite baffle setup

As you may have seen from an earlier thread, I'm looking for something to replace my SBP15 that has more punch. I was leaning towards the Fi Q or IB3, but then my buddy just gave me his JL Audio 12w6v2-D4 (not sure how drunk he was lol). So now I'm a bit at a crossroad. I don't believe the JL will perform well in an infinite baffle setup due to its higher Qtc with this car.

Will a single 12" w6v2 give me the additional kick over the SBP15 if I put it in a sealed or ported setup? I was considering using the ski pass through as a port, but I'm not sure if that's optimal. I don't want to corner load it, because my golf clubs won't fit in the trunk then. I'm open for suggestions while keeping space in my trunk reasonable since I carry a spare tire. Thoughts?

I can always put it in my wife's car, but I've always like the w6v2.
