well watts dont matter and they do matter......

some subs will say 1000 watts and have this little tiny magnet on the back of it.

If you want quality subs check the magnet, the thicker and bigger it is the more quality you'll most likley get out of it.

I just bought 2 10" rockford fosgate p2's for around $200 and they are great, but take your time and search a bit, hope that helps

Most subs will have the weight of the magnet posted. Get the heavy ones.

First off, get a good brand. Not best buy crap, unless you are stressed on money. Some brands that are well known will underate their subs, but sound 10 times better than the offbranded, for example, Rampage Subs, that are rated at 1000 watts rms and 2000 watt peak.

Id just get a 12" sub, with a matched 1.75" to 2" thick box, and a hefty subwoofer amp.

Getting good thump also depends on the box you have too. From what I understand, sealed will give you better SQ, but ported will give more thump.
