I like Code, they are good alarms and not that hard to install even for an amateur.

A code alarm is an audiovox, which is a very fine alarm. I've used many audiovox alarms in the past with no problems at all. I personally use AutoPage, which work absolutely great and virtually never fail.
As for your audio, well... It's not the greatest stuff, but it'll work and it's a good starting point for you. I'd run 1/0 wire to cover all your bases and I always suggest running 3 sets of RCA's so if you ever want to add a 4ch amp everything is already prepared for it.

u may as well just get some sony speakers or jensens with that set up, no reason on wasting your money on good speakers. not to sound like a dick or anything, but if for right now ur just running the stuff off of a jensen headunit i dont care if your running sonys or JL ZR's, theyre gonna sound the same

It Depends
We use Viper and Prestige by Audiovox Alarms and like them both
As far as your Audio those DB Drive PLW12D2 Subs are some excellent Subs they will handle abuse to the max and put out some serious bass for you,
Your Quantum Audio Amp is actually capable of doing in the neighborhood of 2000 Watts RMS if I remember correctly which is a good match up to those subs
So your mids and highs should be something serious to keep up with your Bass
I am not sure of what you are looking for but what you are starting out with is a head banger set up which is usually coupled with Loud Speakers or a boat load of Coaxial Speakers in order for the voices to keep up.
So if Loud is your main goal try Selenium Loud Speakers
