That RF amp will have no problem powering 4 or 14 subs so long as you get the impedance right (4ohm). Despite the literature, those amps are NOT 1ohm stable.

That amp will work on the subs, here is how they will wire up to the amp, the pic says a mono amp so ignore that part but its wired up exactly the way you will need it :

The box might be a little big for those p1s, I'd stay closer to 1.25-1.5 cu/ft per sub or 3.75-4.5cu/ft.

Eh, 4 P1's SMH.... you probably woulda been better getting a little bit better of subs, like one or two p3's or something like that.... Its gonna be loud, but the quality is not going to be there.

P1s arent as bad as everyone makes them out to be. Yes they are overpriced for what you get and there are better values out there, but they will do alright ported. Most people knock them because they have only heard them sealed or just hate because its a mainstream company.

I really like RF's but im just saying he coulda got better sound quality... I know a lot of people are just in it for loudness, but I still like having good sound quality.

I have only heard p1s sealed, but I am about to build a ported box for some older p1 10s I scoredfor cheap on craigslist. Most people that buy p1s don't bother to put them in a custom box and instead do sealed or prefab ported. That's why a lot of entry level subs have a bad rep.
