Tell me what to do with this?

Friend has one of these 15" subs that he wants to put into his car? I know nothing about it other than I think it is 8ohms and is cerwin vega came out of a home audio floor standing speaker.

Looks like the 15's out of these.

How much power can I throw at it?

Is it even worth it?

It says 4 ohms right on the back of the speaker. I see no point in putting those in a car. Unless he just wants to play with them until they blow.

[edit...]

Oops, I sort of misunderstood. But those drivers are not made to be subs...they won't play like a real dedicated sub will.
