Hello guys n gyals, i'm having a bit problem, and that is i bought two 600watt fusion subs and 1000 watt 5 channel amp, but it has 200 watt less power to run them on. I wanted to ask if its possible to run another 200 watt amp with these and how?

Hardly worth the effort, just run them under-powered...
But if you want to, it is possible...

Just because it's a 600w sub, it doesnt mean you have to 600w amp to power it. I'm not sure which, but I know one should have less power then the other. Someone on here should know anyway...
Besides, if you're putting this system into a Corsa, what you have already is more then enough power. I have an Audi A4 which I have installed a sound system into. Part of the Audi's design, is that it has an inch thick steel plate seperating the boot and cabin, and the same seperating the engine bay and the cabin (less road noise). Because of this, the sub doesnt sound as loud as it did in my Corsa, but it's still loud enough to make my ears bleed.
I only have a 500w amp too.

Ideally you should have an amp more powerfull than the sub, thats because when the amp reaches its limit it can start clipping which overheats the voice coils and kills the speakers.
Whats the spec (in RMS) of your system? Any links to your subs/amp? anything other than RMS power figures are next to useless TBH
