The stealthbox will be a very easy way to add some bass to the stereo. It's engineered specifically for the trunk of a mustang, like getting a custom box but much cheaper. It looks like the sub is a dual voice coils at 6 Ohms wired to run at 3 Ohms. Amps are set up to run at certain Ohms. So if the amp specs say it can run at 4 ohm it's not recommended to run subs with under 4 Ohms. If you run an amp that's rated at 250 watts at 4 Ohms, and you run it at 2 Ohms, you would have 500 watts approximately. Lowering Ohms gives you more power, but creates a higher strain on the amp. An amp rated at 2 Ohms would be good for the stealthbox. Check to see that it's rated that low when bridged(if it's a two channel amp) as that's how you'd be running the amp. If it's a mono sub amp you don't need to worry about this. If any of this doesn't make sense just ask and I'll try to better explain it.
