What impedance woofers? I would highly suggest only running one woofer as your will be majorly underpowering those speakers

specs say 4 ohm DVC, I never looked on the speaker, but I do have them series parallel to 2 ohms,

If each woofer is dual 4 ohm you will only be able to run at 2 ohm stereo with each sub connect to each channel getting only 200 Watts per sub.
Might want to consider upgrading that amp to something bigger but something your cars electrical system can handle

just noticed the subs are 2 ohm DVC, so kind of limited, do you suggest bridging this amp or running speakers at 4 ohms to each channel

I'd just use one sub than and wire it 4 ohms mono....or you could use one coil on each sub and series them for a 4 ohm mono load
