i've alwasy been a big fan of fosgate stuff. it really depends what kind of sound you are going for if this is the right setup or not. but heck, i wouldnt pass this up

Fosgate is a good choice, make sure you get 4 gauge wire and you might want to take a look at farad caps depending on how much bass you like. I have an 800.2 fosgate amp hooked up to 2 12" HE2 subs and when the volume is high and the bass hit's the light's dim. So depending on how bass happy you are you might want to get a farad cap.

I would check out some of the new PowerAcoustik if I was you. The woofers and amps are massive. You could get a dual 2ohm 15" for a $120

The rule of thumb is that for every 1000watts you are running you need one 1 farad cap. I ran the rockford bd1500 to 3 eclipse twelves and had two 1 farad caps and it worked beautifully. Later,

Nothin wrong with that system except you need 4 gauge power wire instead of 10. I have 4 in my Eclipse. Personally I'm a kicker fan but that system is a deal if I've ever seen one.
