speak english.. but I think what you're saying is will your head unit power a 12 inch sub? answer is.. NO you need an AMPLIFIER somewhere in between the headunit and the subb. best bet is to get a mono amp, or 2 channel bridgable AMP. if your headunit has the ouput for a sub (RCA's) plug them into the AMP RCA inputs. and wire some power to the AMP and there you go.

hint... sounds like you don't know much about audio systems... I definitly suggest you bring your car to a shop, and have them install a setup for you..

The HU powers the factory speakers and the amp would power the sub. match the subs watts with an amps RMS.

I agree. No offense man, but you don't seem nearly enough to install a sound system, maybe not even enough to choose out what to put in your car. Don't take it the wrong way I was there once, just read stuff online and learn what you can. I don't want to see you waste your money when you buy subs and an amp but realize that they won't work together because of ohm's, wattage, etc.
