Message	you'll be fine. The game isn't how many subs, what size, or how much power your amps push... its how loud can the sub (or subs) play cleanly before distorting. Your head unit may be rated at 50x4, but RMS (real, everyday power) will be more like 15-20watts. Sealed boxes require more power than ported ones, but also can produce cleaner, tighter bass. My last system, tuned for SQ competition used a single 10" stealthbox and a 350W amp. There was plenty of bass with more in reserve. Try a site like CARSOUND for more detailed info on what equipment you will need to suit your tastes. "Too dumb for opera, too smart for NASCAR."
