Good to hear of your progress, cant wait to see how you end up (11s hopefully?). Love the car show pics btw, very nice cars. As far as your subs and amp, I would say if you think you will have enough to dip into the 11s, the subs and amp may not be that big of a factor. More power = less noticeable parasitic hp loss. Only time slips will tell the truth... lol.
