it would not stress the rca outputs, but it would put more stress on the amps to give out the louder signal.

basically you can do the RCA split in the boot to save you running a 3rd RCA through the car when there isnt any need.

right ok. is there anyway i can have 3 rca's even tho there is only space for 2. i.e put the seperator thing in my headunit and the 2 rcas into the 1 slot???

most amps have an option of being put inline with the speaker wires rather than using an RCA. its not the prefered choice but in some cases its all you can do.

it will explain how to do it in your amplifyer instructions if you can.

what you mean inline with speaker wires

you dont want to split the rca if for example you are using one for front speakers and one for rear, if your in this situation either buy a new headunit or mount the amp inline with the speaker wires.

it would be better then using the other pair of rca outputs from your headunit. one pair for each amp
