Well if they are 150 rms each then you could get a 2 channel to run them even. You dont need to get a mono..

You don't have to use a mono only amp. You can use a 2 channel amp and use it in a mono configuration or a 4 channel amp bridged to 2 channels (each powering a sub). You just have to be sure that the amp is stable at the load it will be given to drive.

That Pioneer will be fine so long as you can wire the subs to present a 4 ohm load. That means the subs need to be either single 8 ohm, single 2 ohm or dual 4 ohm coils.

well they are both 4ohm but i found a kenwood one that is 2 channel 1000w

250x2 rms

i really dont know what amp to get does it matter

If you want that style Pioneer the GM-D7400M or GM-5400T would be good choices. You don't have to max out the gains on the amp. There are a lot of inexpensive 300W amps. Look at Kicker, JBL, Infinity, Phoenix Gold (Ryval).

Probably shouldn't be hooking this up yourself. Main thing is if its not getting louder or sounds any worse as you turn it up, stop. You cant just max the gain out and let it play however loud it wants to.
