Looks like a good match at 1 ohm.
 
The Pioneer rated 2500w normal that will be program normally. So will be more like 1250w rms. So 2500w rms will drive it nicely.
 
So use the Pioneer voice coils together in parallel to make 1 ohm and buy that amp.
 
Least the amp gives true rms readings, not pmpo lies.
 
Hope you got a higher enough ampage battery? You might need 2 and 2 1 Farad capacitors and at least a 200 amp alternator.

not neccessarely. unless he intends to use it for SPL then there is no point for caps or too many extra batteries.
 
he can get away with a 100amp idle rated altenator just fine with maybe a good extra battery for voltage stiffening. Caps wont do any good unless it's for SPL and only tested for 1-2 seconds, if it's for show/everday listening/ sound quality, don't use caps because they wont help you any.
 
if you DO plan to use it for SPL, 3 1 fared caps sence it's just over 2k watt it would be better to have a little extra then a little less then what you need. battery wise, a pair of Kinetik Audio HC2000's should be good if you don't plan on changing your main vehicle battery. if you do, use a Kinetik Audio HC2400 *if you can fit it* for your main and one HC2000 near the amplifier. o/1 guage wire ofcourse and lots of dampening.
 
just remember though, you don't always have to have all the supplied power available for a huge amp. when playing music in your vehicle, 50amps of supplied power goes a long way.
