One of these should do the trick... http://mobile.jlaudio.com/prod..._id=5 the box for it will depend on the kind of sub bass you want.

This is the easiest way to get it, stupid loud... http://mobile.jlaudio.com/prod...d=189

Also available in a sealed box for tight accurate sub bass... http://mobile.jlaudio.com/prod...d=302

Digital Designs have some impressive subs. You can get an amazing amount of bass from two of their 1508's (8" woofer) in a relatively small ported enclosure. Check out ddaudio.com and you can even read some stuff on the soundpressure.com forum. I heard a full size toyota truck with four of them in it at SEMA this year and it was amazing. They take 450w rms and 1800w peak I just recently installed a single 1508 in my truck and people cannot believe it is a singe 8" woofer. I need to play around with port tuning some to see if I can get it to play a little lower. Only available in a 4 ohm coil, so you will have to do multiple subs to get the load you'll need for that amp. 3 of them will amaze you.

You will have to check your localJL Audio dealer for pricing.
You can get an idea here... http://search.ebay.com/JL-Audi....m120

But only buy from an authorized JL Audio dealer, only way to be sure you are getting the real thing. 94
