1. Go with 4ch. 2. dont go with pioneer amps. 3. forget the cap. 4. Run 4 gauge. (so if you upgrade later, you won't need to do a pull and rerun) 5. You're going to have to run the same amount of speaker wire whether you go with 4ch or 2ch. 6. That's as far as I've gotten so far
i went ahead and just ordered
Pioneer TS-A1674R (TS A1674R) 6-1/2" 3-Way A-Series Car Speakers
Pioneer TS-A6964R (TSA6964R) 400W 6" x 9" 3-Way Car Speaker
Kenwood X450-4 (X450-4) 4-Channel eXcelon Full Range Power Car Amp
Raptor Amp Kit ISPKBL4-4CH Complete 4 Gauge Amplifier Install Kit
pretty excited to see it all get here! ..a little worried about my headlights dimming though because ive already had some issues with it with just the one amp but i fixed it pretty easily.. also hope there is enough speaker wire with the kit lol
I had a 1000 watt amp with the stock bose amp dimming my lights then I bought capacitor and It still dimmed but a lot less then I did the big 3 upgrade with 4 gauge wire (cause I didn't have the money at the time for 0 gauge).
Sounds like u need to have your alternator checked.
http://www.knukonceptz.com/ for wiring use 4 gauge do it right the first and avoid the hassle down the road.
They're pretty easy to find. Amazon.com: GRAND PRIX 200 AMP HIGH OUTPUT ALTERNATOR 99 0 01 02 03: Automotive

Thats just the first 3 from a quick google search.
But I would start with your power source (battery). It will make your alt not have to work so hard.
Isn't an 05 Grand Prix a lot harder and different than most cars for the big 3? I tried just looking at how to do it one day and it looked a lot more complex than most how to videos showed
Late response but for #5 the plan was put the amp under pass seat for 2ch run two sets of wires from one ch to left n right fronts then run one wire to back left then from out of back left speaker connect it to back right speaker it irrelevant now but that was my speaker wire saving plan
