Amp for Soundstream T4-12

It says the RMS is 900w and it can be wired for 1/2,1,2,4 OHMS and maybe other Ohm's as well.

I got this sub for free and I don't want to make a huge project out of this so what's a cheap amp that I can put with this. I'm not looking for something that is "upgrade friendly" I just want something that will power it without straining too hard.

I was thinking a Boss amp since I can pick up a 1200w RMS (at 2 ohms) amp for like $150 on ebay. Is there something cheaper or better within or below that price. Online store would be great.

I should probably state a few more things as well. This will ultimately go into a mazda 3 when I buy one in a month or two. I'm getting the hatchback and I won't be replacing the stock speakers. Just adding a sub. Now I like a lot of bass but Being in a hatchback with sock speakers I don't wan to overpower my music too much so maybe a 500w amp will be enough. No SPL here just a little extra ohmph

Thanks guys for the speedy responses. Anyone ever heard of Cal Cell amps? I picked up two 2-channel amps for $80 today that will do 1 ohm stable 250w per channel so like 1000w. I'm going to hook it up but tell me if it sucks so I can take it back.
