I know that the recommended manifold opening should equal the area of the woofers you are using. The average 8 inch sub has 32 square inches of surface area. 12 subs would be 384 sq. in. Your 15 x 24 opening is 360 sq. in. That should be close enough. Do you know what the model number is of the Pyle subs?
I went and took one of the speakers out of the box and it isn't quite what the listed specs in the auction sales sheet said but I can live with that the car was only $500 and I didn't buy it for a banger built sound system.

Incidentally the subs are not 1200 watt rated they are 800 watt and 4 ohms. Model number PLBW84.

Please excuse me for a while, I am gonna go fire up Zeppelin 2 and enjoy the stereo while it is still in the car.
