I'm not sure what you're trying to do exactly. To reduce EMI you may
want to have asymmetric turn on/off paths so that you can turn the
MOSFETs on a little bit slower than you turn them off.
I have also used high pulse-current PNP transistors along with gate
drive chips in order to boost the turn-off current by several amps.
Your MOSFETs have a very high gate charge, so having two of them in
parallel with only 2 amps of gate drive current may make your turn-off
times very slow.
