Mapping out my ststem.
Ok first off i havent done the car audio thing in a few years and im lost on which brands are leading right now. Heres a list of what i plan on putting in. This car is ending up to be a show car so i dont want to spare any expense.

Fiberglass amp / cap/ nitrous tanks rack over the gas tank
2 15" flipdown screens facing hatch area molded into the fiberglass headliner
15" screen in the fiberglassed dash where the passenger airbag was
2 7" visor screens
2 7" screens in the door panels
2 12" screnes in the amp rack
2 JL 12W7's
Hidded /molded in xbox 360
optima yellow top hidded in spare tire well
I have a nice sony head unit that im going to use
Ipod mount molded into fiberglasses dash
Fiberglass kick pods with 6.5 jls and jl tweeters
2 JL 6x9's in rear stock location
2 JL 6.5 in the kick panels

Re: Mapping out my ststem.
yeah that sounds all good and such......but why? why put all that stuff in a camaro? 0 guage wire ....that sounds like a little bit of overkill.......seems to me 4 guage and 8 guage wires throughout would be sufficient.........is this strictly a show car? are you actually going to be driving this? if its just a show car, then i guess.....you cant go wrong with jl audio components.......look into MB quart component speakers IMO they have far superior sound quality....pricey...but you get what you pay for,......good luck

You'll need more than one mono amp for the subs. 12W7's should be run off of the 1000/1. 12W7 on the 500/1 - Been there, done that. Do the 1000/1.
If it's a 'show' system, I guess you're on the right track. It just seems like you're all over the place though. Basically just throwing in as much gear as you possibly can.
Two 15" monitors will look odd. Maybe you don't quite realise how big 15's are. They're huge. I never even recommended them for vans.
If you really want my advice from doing some show vehicles, but doing car audio for a living for a while, then say so. I have some pictures of a friends 2002 WS6 that's won a fair share of trophies for his install. Drops jaws, but I'd say it's a lot simpler and cleaner than what you're planning on doing.
