Call them I'm sure they will get you what you need.

I selected the regal with the 3.8 for the link I posted for what it's worth.

That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

Why not just stay Sundown Audio all around and get the SCV 2000D?

Ampre audio seems to be putting out some very nice quality amps at the moment, i'd also look into their 2K amp:

A few more options are the DC Audio 2K, Crescendo Audio BC2000, SoundQubed 2200.2D, Sound Magus VS3500.

Rms on these subs is 1250 each, was thinking might be best running a 3k-3.5k watt amp ( and set the gains to match rms of the subs) so im not peaking a 2k amp?

Guess the question comes also, am I better off running 1 amp that is higher watts 3-3.5k or 2 that are 2kish?

I was taking your 105A stock alternator into consideration... If you had a H/O alternator and your budget is $800 here are other options:

Go with something other than the crescendo.

Not that they are bad amps but literally everyone says their customer service after you've bought the stuff is horrible.

That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

Im watching videos and the bc5500 came in at 4200 watts certified 4300 watts uncertified 4700 dynamic. The bc3500 falls short to make power too. Pay a few more hundred and get something different. Look into sundown scv line and dc power Amps

You may perhaps want a HO alternator first...

Ya, I was looking for one not to long ago couldn't find any that would fit a 2000 buick regal that was under 600 bucks .... why I still am running a stock one.
Try Ohio Generator... Call ask for Tom. 330-875-6677

Good luck with that, hope your experience is better than mine. I was told it could be made, when I was ready to order, they said it couldn't, then just stopped answering my calls... I know people that use them, I am not bashing the brand but this soured me on them greatly. I think I wI'll be an Ohio Generator guy for as long as I can. If he ever stops, I will choose Singer.

Crescendo never got back to me from when I contacted them Monday so, I ended up ordering a SVC-4000D from SSA today. Still haven't gotten around to the HO alt tho.
