2 inch sub?? damn i bet that thing rattles the whole car dosent it XD

haha just kiddin

anyhow, it sounds to me like htere is power running to the sub causing it to make it run a high frequency, my computer system does that to me, i got 2 satelite speakers and a 10 inch subwoofer, then i turn my computer on, i get a frequency comming from it. i think its normal, idk. i would just live with it lol.

You're saying you hear this noise even with the engine off? Then it's certainly not from the exhaust.

Could be a grounding issue. Also RCA cables should not run alongside the power or ground wires to the amp, as there might be feedback. If the exhaust install involved any arc welding, it could have burned something out.

when you ran your amp wires the power wire needs to be on onside of the car with the remote wire then the rca wires ran on the other side by themselves. this will get rid of the noises you hear

i have a cap but thier main useage is so your lights dont flicker when the bass drops, i dont think an amp will take up more juice from ur battery than your altinator can withstand.

cuz i think my amp is draining my batery
Unless you hooked up the Remote wire wrong, it's not the amp.....No 2 in sub that i know of can take enough power to even make you lights dim....

If it was shorted out, there would most likely be a blown fuse or a fire.

Maybe check the alt like Supersize said.
