Please take an English class. It takes us considerably longer to figure out what you're trying to ask when your typing sucks that much.

Fortunately, you did do a decent job matching your sub and amp. The sub will take the full power of that amp. Just be sure not to set the gain too high and go into clipping. We can't tell you what the gain should be at as it will vary from car to car, even with identical equipment. So basically start at low gain and turn it up until it's right. Best to have an oscilloscope to find that point, otherwise aim to be a little low on the gain as opposed to a little high.

Here is how I've tuned subs in the past and still have had no problems with them:

1. Make sure that the headunit is tuned sound wise to the way that you like it.

2. Turn the volume (or gain, or whatever controls the amp's volume) is all the way down.

3. Turn the volume on the headunit all the way up to just before it distorts.

4. Go back to the amp and slowly turn the amp up to just before the bass starts to distort.

5. IMPORTANT: make sure you never turn the amp more than 3/4 of the way all the way up or you risk blowing it! If this happens to get the desired bass, then get a more powerful amp to match your needs.

6. turn the volume on the headunit down to a comfortable level and you have just "tuned" your amp and subs.
