I have 2 12" Kicker CVR's and a Kicker ZX 250.2 amp. Would a larger amp make it louder? if so what would be a good upgrade?

I can give you a deal on a RD 1000.1. That would work well.

double the power from an amp will add +3dB.
you need 10X the power (within the Xmax limits and power handling of the subs of course) to increase audible volume by 6-10dB (double the volume.)

that being said, those CVRs should be getting 300 watts each to get them moving.
also, consider a good ported enclosure if you want to increase output as well.
