you need a non inductive resistive dummy load. you can make your own with an old hair drier if you're in a pinch.
the heating coil just has to be taken out of the device, and unwound.. then measured and attached to a heat spreader. that'll serve the purpose.
and if you're going to run more than that brutus now or later, just run 1/0AWG cable now and save the hassle later.
split to 4ga at the amp with a fused d-block and use 4ga for ground.

Im going to be using just the brutus and nothing more
no amp for the front stage or rear fill?
that system is going to be severely mismatched for power. the bass will overpower any vocals or treble. you generally want two thirds of your power for subs and a third for mids/highs.. as a rule of thumb.
always exceptions. I've had more power to front stage than subs before in systems, but usually you want that 2/3 split.
that means if you're going to give the sub)s_ 700 or so watts, you'll want around 300 watts for the rest of the system to balance it out.
