you should have a blue wire on back of your head unit for remote. you run that wire to your remote spot on your amp to power on amp when radio is on. and when radio is off amp will turn off. i would suggest running at least 6 guage fused wire from your battery to + of amp. maybe a 50 amp large fuse will work. definately 4 to 6 guage ground wire. the thicker your positive and ground wires the better the performance of the amp. and you want to keep your ground as short as possible. less interference. but as far as a 400 2 channel amp that would push 2 10 inch subs and have a good quality sound or you could bridge it and power a 12 inch sub. and for ported vs unported vs open boxes. its a personal preference. what type of sound do you want? i had a competition ported setup in a toyota tacoma 200x2 kicker amp with kenwood 12" sub and it was just plain nasty. now i am after good quality sound. so i still have the same setup but went with a basic box just to give low punch with my sound and it drives the bass really good.
