8 ohm mono and 4 ohm stereo will produce the same amount of power. The amp is actually 180 watts by 2 at 4 ohms, not 360

exactly, the 360.2 means the amp is a 360 watt 2 channel amp, not a 360 x2 amp. and wiring the amp in 4 ohm stereo is exactly the same as wiring it in 8  ohm mono.
what!?!?! you want some??

Another quick update as well, the 360.2 is actually rated at 180w x 2 @ 2ohms not 4, it is rated at 360w x 1 @ 4 ohms and 90w x 2 @ 4ohms. If this is a punch series amp, do not run it a 2 ohms mono, it will grenade on you. If it is a power series amp, like Ravenderat pointed out it can handle 2 ohm mono for a limited period of time if it is not asked to do too much. If you plan on giving your sub a workout, wire the sub in series as we originally suggested, in all cases it is the safest way to run your sub.
Top Secret, I can tell you but then my wife will kill me.
