You would run channels 1 & 2 to the front components, and bridge channels 3 & 4 to the sub. You could leave the rear 6x9 speakers connected to the stock head unit for a little rear fill if you're into that. If you did a big amp like the Orion HCCA10004 - that should provide plenty of power for a front component set and have plenty for a sub.
You would have to connect the amp to the front channels of the head unit, so you would need a Line Output Converter (LOC) for that. The more I think about it, you could do that pretty cheap (around $1K).
Amp - $500 (Orion HCCA10004)
LOC - $20 (any 2 channel will do)
Sub - $130 (Orion XTRPRO104 10" for around $130)
Sub Box - $40 (Basic 10" box from Sonic is $40 shipped)
Front components - $140 (Infinity Reference 6030cs for around $140)
Misc. Wiring - $100
Total: $930
Obviously the total is based on whether you do it yourself or take it to a shop. I'd bet that little system would sound awesome. Hope that helps!

Many thanks, Darkrider. You're the man!
