Yup, I factored for an amp too, just wanting some knowledge on how to hook it up and if it's all possible without upgrading the headunit.

Anyhow, just did some research and found a company with experience in e82 upgrades - they commented that adding a sub to the base spec audio will have no real gain, unless coupled with a few other upgrades. Will have to email them to see what upgrades they recommend.

The last resort is just adding under-seat subs. I'm not aiming for a doof doof machine, so it should suffice either way.

edit: I wonder if coding the head unit will allow some more options in only adding an amp and sub.
