I carry MTX. Don't know what kind of price your getting but I can do a pair of T8512-44 for $612.00. Add an MTX JH1200 Class-D monoblock amp to it for an additional $359.00 and I throw in a 4awg amp wiring kit for FREE. The JH1200 would be a good choice to power those. It would put you in the right power range for those subs.
Like the pic of your car. Not sure if you remember me at the show but I was a sponsor this year.

sent you a pm, but also have a question. How does a monoblock amp power the 2 subs, and with that amp how much power is going to each sub?

Unless your Amp is 1ohm stable , wire it for a 4ohm load.
