Its kinda of confusing for me and just would like to clarify if it would work.

Answer 1

the amp and subwoofer will work fine. but your subwoofer will be underpowered by that amp.

I would suggest looking for another 2 channel amp just like the one you have but that puts out 200 watts bridged at 4 ohms. that is the optimal setup for you.

any wiring kit will work fine. the wiring kit is used to provide power to the amp.

If you want to use that subwoofer then this is what you want to look for in an amp

200 Watts bridged at 4 ohms.

so what you have now is 97 watts bridged at 4 ohms. you can ignore everything else (except the brand) and look for a 2 channel amp that gives you 200 watts bridged at 4 ohms or close to it.

alternatively you can look for a mono amp that puts out 200 watts at 4 ohms, but it will probably cost more than a 2 channel amp that gives you 200 watts bridged.
