powering two of these

good match? my friend wants a cheap but decently loud setup for his highlander, basically, he wants people on the front steps to hear him pull into the school parking lot (roughly 200 feet away??) any (not too complicated) opinions on whether this is a decent beginners setup?

For a decent first time system, pretty decent. Will get pretty loud. enough to hear boom from acroos the school parking lot
. I had a few of the different kicker comps through the years since they were stillwater. Alays have been pretty good especially for 44.00. Plus there a good power match up to the amp. better than my first system in 91, a kick ass pyle driver 12, and a legacy amp....sweet.

For a budget system that should do the trick. Why 10's and not 12's?

No replacement for displacement.

i'd go with the comp VR's, whether they would be from scarrell, or from online (only 10 bucks more) They handle 300 rms to match the amp, and are a better sub, so you could use the amp to its full potential.

I've been thinking of doing a build with a bunch of Comp VR's or a bunch of W1's. Anyone ever do a build with a lot of little 'power' subs, if so how'd it sound? I just think it'd be cool to have four of them or something, fours all I could fit... if that. Well I guess I could squeeze four in there. Also with a build surrounded by 4 smaller powered subs, would the box be the part that makes or breaks the build sort of speak?

I've seen a few multi sub set ups with smaller stuff, but most have been in show vehicles and not really oriented towards big bass,
Although I have one kid here locally that has 6 - 10" Diamond D3s that we're gonna try and squeeze into the back of an eclipse... and I'm sure that the enclosure is what's going to make all the difference in the world.
As for your friend, I'm with everybody else on this one... VRs would be a better match and overall subs for the first time set up... and if he can get them from Scarrell for less and save a lil dough, all the better
