Is this going to be a good sound system for a car?

Question

Ok, so i do not know a whole lot about amps, speakers, subwoofers, and wiring of it all. But it's going to be a while until i have enough money saved up for my dream SS. So, i would like to know if the things that i've been looking at will add up to be enough power, to much distortion, not enough etc.It's going to be while (like i said) so i better learn about it all before i buy something that i don't even need. I first looked at speakers, i heard that pioneer is really good, so looked at that.
6 3/4 2way speaker... TS-D1702R. ok i think 4 would be nice.-is that to many??? Then the amp would be a bass inferno- BI4400PRO. This has 2 channels. My thinking is that if it has 2 channels it can have 2 Subs that can hold up to 2,200 max each. Now Subwoofers, CW2-152 they are 15's it said 2,200 watts each so i want a 4,400 watt amp. Right? I know you might be thinking, "this kid doesn't know what he's talking about at all"... But i need advice and how it works and what i should get. Thank you for your patience in reading. God Loves you!!

First thing, never go by max/peak power rating, there useless. Go by the rms ratings. Try 2 match the rms of the sub, or if ur gtn 2 subs, the combined rms 2 the rms of the amp. Example, 1000 peak 500 rms- look for an amp that does no more than 500 rms. Now say u want 2 of em, they both do 500 rms so ur amp should do 1000 rms. The best kind of amps 4 subs r mono block amps. The subs ur lookn at say 1000 rms a piece. The amp ur lookn at has nowhere near enough power 2 push those properly. U shld look 4 an amp that does at least 1000 rms but no more than 2000 rms.  Also since those subs are 2ohm dvc (daul voice coil) u gotta hook em up at a 2 ohm load. Heres a link 2 show u how http://m.seimg.net/product/img/subwoofer_wiring/2_subs_DVC_2_ohm_mono.jpg  A good amp 4 the subs ur lookin at is http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_14910_Power-Acoustik-BAMF-4000-1D-BAMF4000-1D.html  hook those subs up @ 2 ohms n you'll b bangin out! Good luck man. O yea put em in a ported box 2, they'll b louder
