I have Two ten inch Jl audio subs. I was wondering what size wire guage do i need and how many watts for my amp. I currently have a 500watt amp but i dont think its really enough to make the subs hit

What kind of amp do you have? A quality amp with a true 500 watts rms should be more than enough for a pair of 10's. As far as the wire I wouldn't go with any less than 4ga. It might be a little overkill right now but it leaves room to expand later without having to rewire the car. Just my opinion.
