For an install like that, I'm sure you'll need another alternator. The one you have is probably 100 to 130 amps, multiply that by 12 or 14.4 volts, and thats just 1200-1800 watts. What sort of amp(s) are you using for 5000 watts rms? thats pretty nuts lol. Sorry no pics or sites for ya right now.

I dont know what i'm going to use yet but I'v had several 2000 to 3500 watt systems before but I never took the time or love to do them right. This time I'm going to do every little thing posible. I used to have a/d/s amps/mids with  3 w6 12" two 1000d directed amps pushing them.I want to try somthing new, any thoughts? thanks for the alternator answer.

Here's a picture of a slick enlcosure for 3 subs (Eclipse) in an Escalade. Lots of work, but if you have the patience it looks awesome. These aren't 15"s but 12"s. How were you planning on fitting (4) 15"s? Check out http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/346645/2 for more of this escalade.

That looks sweet. I was thinking of a diamond shape, so if looked through the front to back there would be a big diamond hole through it with the 15's fireing at each other.In the front it would have plexiglass triangle plates, flush mounted with ports molded into the plexiglass so you could see the back of the speaker. In the back it would have all the amps flush mounted at the angle of the box. well you can probable picture it in your mind.   Thanks for the pic ill go check that out.
