I have 2 2ohm dvc kicker L5s and a kicker 800.2 amp. It is rated at 2ohms stereo and 4 bridged. I was looking for suggestion to get the most spl out of them. Thanks.

SPL is going to mainly be decided by the box, in this case a huge slot port enclosure for these subs. As far as the amp goes, it is not the right match of amp to subs. You should have bought the dual 4 ohm versions to guarantee the right match of subs to amp. As it sits your wiring method is either 1 or 4 ohm stereo (1 ohm stereo being a big time no no), 4 ohm stereo being fine (just not tons of power) or 2 ohm mono. What is the exact model # of the amplifier? I doubt that the amp is stable to 2 ohm mono but would like to check to be sure.
