Will this system work?

I'm in the process of putting together a system for my car. So far I have come up with the following setup. Will all of this fit in my car and work out? How's the quality gonna be? I'm thinking about adding an amp, but I probably won't do that until later.

Head Unit: Pioneer DEH-P8400MP (22 Watts RMS X 4)
Front Speakers: Infinity Reference Series 605cs (6-1/2" Component Speaker System) 90W RMS
Rear Speakers: Infinity Kappa 692.5i (6"x9" 2-way Speaker) 110W RMS

1) Would anyone recommend any changes?
2) What size amp would you recommend to power these speakers?

Thanks in advance...

and amp would actually let you experience the true potential of the setup. a 2x100W rms to the fronts and you'll be happy. btw, assuming you have a coupe w/ tweeters already in it to say that it will fit.

I have that MTX 4244 and I love it! It is WAY underrated too...I think mine was marked as being 58 per channel at 12.4 volts...lot of bang for the buck [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

Yeah, the Infinity Reference Series 605cs Components come with tweeters. Can I use the existing pods without modifications?

the 6x9's sound awsome, i installed them in my coupe last night. your goin to have to use the grill as a spacer under the speaker, just pop out the mesh part and use the plastic ring. once you get the rear deck off your goin to have to dremel the speaker ring off too so it will clear the 6x9's youll see what i mean once you get the rear deck off.
