My Bad about the OHM Thing i dont know much about subs and amps but im looking at that kicker sub or this Type-R do i need to get a 800 Watt amp or a 1500 Watt amp to power it and what about the speakers in the car already do i need a amp to power those or will they still run the same way?

Cool thanks for all the good info, what does the amp hook into exactly, im just wondering for warranty purposes if the installer does something stupid and hooks it up wrong and it messes up something i just wanna know what could go wrong. i know it sounds odd but with the car having a 5 year warranty dont want something to go wrong and have to spend alot of money outta pocket

Some car manufactures can claim if your electrical system fails they can void the warranty if they find a system. - Ask around here for a reputable installer in your area and make sure they are insured. Power to the amp connects to the battery and ground connects to either chassis or the ground on the battery. Ask the installer if he's worked on your model year of car before. Also take photos before and after just in case the installer breaks a panel and tells you it was already like that!
