How powerful is the stock subwoofer amp?

Hi, I have a 2000 GS 300 with the standard (I think Pioneer) stereo system, and I would like to know how many watts the subwoofer amplifier outputs.

Thanks!

I doubt that it's even 100 watts RMS CLEAN.

The sub amp is not all the powerful since the 4 channel door speakers and the 1 channel sub speaker is all enclosed in a tiny box that is the OEM amp.

It's my understanding that the sub amp is a separate unit mounted to the rear deck. The stock 4-channel amp has no pinouts for the sub, so I think that's true.

edit: oops, thought i was in the SC forum ... I know nothing about the GS system .. I'll go away now =)
