Well what kind of box do i want and where do i get it?
and i dont understand what ohm to get what i was reading just said it was how you hooked it up. is there any performance differnce?

You want to just get loud right?
If so, then go the ported route. It will be louder than sealed.
As for your Ohm question, there is no difference in how the sub performs. Companies offer different voice coil configurations for more wiring options.
Example, a 4 ohm dual voice coil sub will yield either a 2 or 8 ohm load depending how it is wired.
So, once you figure out what subs you want, figure out the final impedance when wired together and choose an amp that will work.

short answer: you need to match the number of coils and their impedance (ohms) to the number of subs, and the amplifier(s) you choose.
pick the subs, and how many you want to use
pick the amp you want to use
that will tell you which coil setup to get with the subs.
