NOOOOOO...
No Wolfenhag....that's like Lanzar, Pyle, Pyramid, and the rest of the "budget" brands out there. Do not waste your money.
I have an excellent line of amps from reputable companies. If you need power on a budget check out this Audiopipe I have: http://www.keeaudio.com/audioipe.html
I have tested these thoroughly as I was skeptical at first and am using one in my DD currently. It will do that Type-R right and for the money you can't beat them. Plus they have a tiny foot print are really 1ohm stable. It will also put out a real 1000watts at 1ohm. This puts you right in the meat of the power for that Type-R at 600watts RMS @ 2ohms.
I have used a Volfenhag 2000watt amp before....it is a joke. Beware of amps that say 2000watts and have an RMS rating of 800watts. If the RMS rating is 800watts then the peak power output should be about 1600watts...not 2000.

Assuming you bought the "2 + 2" DVC version, I suggest you run the coils in series for better damping and stability with a 4 Ohm load.
As Ian said, stay away from the cheapo brands for longevity, power, and reliability.
Kenwood KAC-9105D would be a good choice, but I wouldn't go any lower than this:

As Ian said, Audiopipe is a good value, a marginal step up from the Kenwood, IMHO.

If you can scrounge up an extra $50 or so, go with the Hifonics Brutus BRZ1200.1D:

Any of these will get job done and not disappoint you.
