The Pioneer has in In dash CD and 200 W total. If you run just two speakers in the kick panel, you can bridge the channels and have plenty or power without an amp
The 200 watts listed is the peak power of all four channels combined; the deck actually puts out about 20 watts per channel RMS. Bridging the channels of a head unit is not a good idea, because it decreases the impedence that the internal amplifier "sees", and most head units are not stable to below four ohms. So, it might work, but it might also destroy your deck.
