There 1000 watts peak I think for the box and like what 250 a piece?

Wtf? 4-ohms is a higher resistance that 2-ohms therefore your speakers would see theoretically more output at the lower load of 2. Good output, that depends on what your amplifier is built to perform at. Some amplifiers, especially down at that level are only rated at 2-ohms stereo and 4-ohms mono. When you drop the ohm load down to 2-ohms mono, due to wiring configuration as well as speaker selection, your amp will go *poof*. Don't spread stupid. Not trying to be mean, but there are already too many misinformed people when it comes to car audio.

And sound deadening... If you are running 500 watts, don't even worry about sound deadening. It would cost more to deaden it than the rest of your audio gear is worth... :/
