I am going to be setting up a system for my new car. Right now i am gathering my equipment up. I have got:
2 Rockford Fosgate 200watt RMS (punch HE)
2 Rockford Fosgate 150watt RMS (punch Z)

I am having trouble figuring out a AMP that is best. I like Rockford Fosgate very much but if another companys AMP is best for my application then tell me.

why not go to RF's website and find amps with power outputs that match your speakers?

well in this case you're already set on RF, so its just a simple matter of matching up numbers :-)
you want a model that's rated for the power output @ the load the subs will present.
I don't know how many coils and the load per coil of the subs you have so I can't even begin to suggest model numbers.

I have all Single Voice Coils. I did the RF wiring schematic and it suggested 2 ohm load. I was looking around on RF web and it looked to me like a P8004 or T8004 amp was good for my application. That way i would get about 150 to 200 watts per sub (theritcally)! What do you think?

Those P8004 and T8004 models are very new and very pricey. I was wanting something lower cost, those are the only things i could find.
