What kind of spark plugs are you running in your Comptech SC'd car?

If you're using the NGK 7173's, they're a non-resistor plug. That means they make electrical interference. Which might explain why you're getting RPM dependent noise.

Try a set of NGK BKR7Es instead.

I've had stock plugs, IK24's and most recently switched to a set of NGK BCPR7ES-11's. All of them had the same radio noise so I dont think it's the plugs.

Have you tried running the radio off your battery without your parent's car hooked up via jumper cables? I'd bet that you'll get the same results.

TRY THE AMP.

Yeah the system sounds fine when the engine is turned off.
Do you think the amp is going bad?
