Im looking for a suitable 2 channel amp for the new set of speakers i just got cuz im tired of starving my speakers. I have infinnity kappa 6x9s with 100 watt RMS and 300 watt peak. I just need a two channel amp for the two in back because my headunit is putting out 22 x 4 RMS. So im looking for a good affordable 2 channel amp putting out 80-100 watt RMS at 4 ohms.

I am not sure I understand your application here.
Most of us tend to go for more power in the front speakers for better clarity, higher SPL and use the rear speakers to fill in the rear channels. If we want more bass, then we often add a sub and amp that as well.
Can you explain your goal here and we'll try to help you sort things out both for now and future audio upgrades. A ballpark budget figure would be most helpful too.

My front speakers have enough watts going to them that i figured it be pointless to buy an amp to raise the power from 22 to the 35 rms. im underpowering my back speakers my 80 watts and i want the best sound possible.

True, there is very little difference in SPL or clarity of a speaker between 22-35 Wrms.
If you powered your rear speakers with 80 Wrms, they are likely to overpower your front speakers and dominate the system. Will the rear speakers be used for full range real fill or bass?
I am still unclear as to what you wish to accomplish here and the budget you have for any meaningful upgrades. It's sounds like the HU is powering your speakers overall, but what is lacking in your system that you wish to improve upon?
Please explain in detail, what you wish to accomplish.

I agree with swez here completly... and also think we need more info on what your lacking in the system... because if you power these rears with 80watts rms the vocals and highs from the rear are going to become extremly over powering.
