Say "Hello" to Mr. Wall-E ......

If you're simply trying to get louder in that car, start saving your pennies.....any substantial increase in volume is going to require a major overhaul of your vehicle's interior and all of the system components. Everything from the power supply ie. batteries, wires and alternator thru to the amps, subs and enclosure will need to be replaced......you will probably have to do a wall, you can only get so loud from the trunk and you already have a lot going on back there now.

Begs the question........why?

the amount of gain that you will receive from adding two more subs will not be worth your money because you will not be able to put them in there with a proper enclosure just adding subs is not the answer if you are looking to get louder think about adding different equipment all around ie. better subs , bigger amp and proper enclosure.

as for the impedences it shouldnt hurt anything to run it like that as long as the total ohm loadage is within the amps capability but i definatly dont recomed going out and buying those subs if you havent already
