Either 2 amps that put out 2500 Watts rms at 1ohm, or 1 amp that puts out 5000 watts rms at 0.5 ohm or 2 ohm. With that kind of power you will need a nuclear power plant under your hood, so before you get all horny hooking amps up start looking for the absolute largest alternator humanly possible to put in your vehicle. Look at www.ohiogen.com or www.mechman.com , now for the amps your going to need some hard core competition amps to power those things to the max so I hope you have a fat wallet! The 2 amps in your other post will not do what you need them to do. Your best bet would be a Crossfire VR4000D. With that kind of power if you dont have at least a 300 amp alternator, your vehicle will just shut off while your driving down the road.

my choice would be memphis mojo's mcd-2500's, they are are 2500x1 @ 1ohm. I am sure there are many, but as stated you are going to need to spend some cash and upgrade your entire charging system, you could do 1 huge alternator or get serious and do 2 alternators.
