Default second amp or upgrade to bt4180

Installed a BT2180 with the 7.1 speakers in the fairing and am in the process of putting kicker 40cs654's in the lowers on my limited. Now looking to put new speakers in the rear pods. I have a set of Kappa 62.11i and deciding on a amp. Better to get a second amp like PBR300x2 or sell the 2180 and upgrade to the 4180?? From the research I have been doing it seems both options would work but the Biketronics amp would be a cleaner install. If I sold the 2180 what is a slightly used one going for. Been used about 6 -7 times on short runs.
