yeah you'd pretty much need another amp. The two amps will need to be connected to one another too so the sound will get to the new amp.subs.

Yeah you will most def. want to hook your two ampstogether and I hate to say this but, to achieve the best sound possiable you should probably buy two new amps of the same brand and model that way you have a better chance of them being for lack of a better term "In Sync"

a gauge 4 power amp wiring can handle two amps. may I ask what amp are you using? Is it a mono amp?

sorry you just confused me. but if your talking to me, then yeah its better off using 4 ga wires as is keep a more constan flow of currents. the amp im using is a 2 channel bridgable amp (Fosgate P5002).

and camry313, no problem. just looking out for my felllow camry owners.

I'm not sure what you're pushin' but you may wanna get a capacitor and/or a larger alt. Just an idea depending on what you have in mind. Good luck though!
