None. If you're using digital EQ, you can forget about it because it's just gonna sound bad.. Also, unless you're using really big speakers, a subwoofer and have a properly treated room, you won't have a clear picture of what you're adding and you'll probably overdo it. Also, this is really bad for getting any kind of loudness out of your mix and master because, for instance, any kind of dynamics processing will just react to the bass first if there's too much.
Also, sub frequencies don't really come through on most systems.. the fatness and power you're likely looking for happens in the frequencies above the subs. A pure sub is a sine frequency.. it's never gonna sound very powerful and get buried under everything else... until you boost it too far and it drowns out the entire mix.
Try different kinds of saturation to bring those upper harmonics out and give it some body.. you'll see that stands out much more, feels weighty without overpowering stuff.
