that would be correct tryg but the enclosure type ported/sealed would depend on your taste in music

No more than $50 a sheet at bunnings i dont think, If you have a joinery nearby go and ask them, I work next to a kitchen/bathroom/office fit out company, they get heaps of 18mm MDF free as it comes as protective layers (top and bottom) on there pallets of wood. They normally scrap it so they give it away to us.

everything in car audio can be managed mathematically. There are lots of programs that can help you tune your choice of sub box, either sealed or ported. Even how to tune your port; it's size and length...
A very basic program is here: http://www.linearteam.dk/default.aspx?pageid=isdonline
I use one that was created by Blaupunkt.

have a look at this

it explains the different types of enclosures
from what i understand a ported box will give you a very clean punchy bass sound ie "doof doof"
where as a sealed box has a softer smoother sounding bass

Generally speaking, sealed boxes are going to give you a very punchy and tighter bass setup. On the other hand ported boxes produce a boomy sound. So sealed boxes are good for quick and faster bass hits, for eg, Rock music like Metallica that use a lot of double bass in their drumming. Rap/R&B music is usually better suited to ported enclosures. That said, custom designed boxes can change this a bit, but as a rule of thumb, this is usually the way to look at it.

a sealed box is defiantly the best way to go for your first system unless you get some else to do it
or your like me who picks the hardest box to build for my first system
