It sounds like you are throwing money and components at it. Have you thought about giving Crutchfield a call? They should be able to steer in the right direction on what you need to do. The do have vehicle specific diagrams available for wiring and mounting things.

Yes noise came in after amp install. The amp is connected directly to the battery.

Thanks for the link. I did get info. from crutchfield but i did not find that info. I am going to try the gain control again on the amp to help with the noise. Its crazy how much noise it picks up. I can hear the noise increase from the accelerator, touching the brake pedal, etc.

Electric interference, from those sources, used to be the alternator and spark plug wires. In the dark ages.
Most of my rides were so loud, I never turned the radio in, or the car was a radio delete.

Since it's an issue with the add-on amp, maybe contact that company and ask how to resolve the problem.
