Adding a sub and amp?

Adding a sub and amp?
I am adding a sub and amp to my friends 2006 Ford Escape Hybrid and half did / half didn't forget about the whole Hybrid aspect of the electrical system. I got this sub and this amp
Should I run into any issues running the combination? Should I look into maybe purchasing a second battery and an Amp Relay Isolator?

I put in a 600rms sub and it runs perfectly fine. Still even goes into hybrid mode as well.

This won't help with your 2006 model, but the 2008 and later models have an area in the right rear cargo area designed for the Audiophile sound system; I think it has the bass speaker. But in any case it is an area that would be empty if the model didn't have audiophile.

I bought it used (with an aftermarket deck), so no clue if it is the Audiophile system or not.
Either way, 2006's do have that spot for a little sub, or at least the ability to swap in the parts from a newer car (in the event that the previous owners did that in my scenario-- I honestly don't know).
