ok looks great. I would reccommend that you spend about 50-75 dollars more and get yourself a JLAudio amplifier. 500/1 or whatever the newest replacement for next year is supposed to be. If the amp is to only run the subs then the JLAduio is much more stable. Are you going throught the factory head unit? Hi-Level inputs on the amp? there are other great amplifiers in that price range also..the Phoenix Gold and PPI amps.
The more power you run to your subs the better. The way speakers blow is by distorted signals through the voice coil which is often caused by under powering. Also you must remember in order to get 3 db of gain in SPL you must double the amplification...see below
dB SPL at 1 metre / Amp Power, Watts, one channel
85 /1
88 /2
91 /4
94 /8
97 /16
100 /32
103 /64
106 /128
109 /256
112 /512
