A few questions..

Should I bridge my amp?

Should I wire my sub parallel or series?

Will parallel,series, or bridging harm my sub or amp?

Not really a good match. Most you'll send your sub is 280wrms @ 2 ohms on one channel.

will I get 560 wrms if I hook it up mono and 980 wrms if i hook it up bridged? i only have one sub.

you can't bridge the amp with that sub because the lowest impedance bridged is 4 ohms, and you can only wire that sub to 2 or 8 ohms.
