n8ball2013 Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 OK for one you had a shop do it. That means you don't know what you are doing.second rcas are shielded mow. Back in the day they weremt.that's where that rule came from. Don't buy shit product and you don't have to worry about it.

Miguels Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 (edited) if i had a shop do it it dont mean i dont know how to do it, it was a choice i made and didnt want to go through the trouble of running multiple runs of 1/0 gauge and take apart my interior to install the dynomat, had a few hours and had to get it done cause i had to do other things and would have taken me ages to do it, and i have another post where i say im never taking it back to a shop and will do things myself since theey screwed up on my grounds holding 2 wires together with zip ties and tape edit: i did the install with no engine noise, now i have to check my ground to check if they are bad. most likely i don't have a good ground Edited January 15, 2012 by Miguels Quote my logshttp://www.stevemead...-my-new-set-up/my blow through loghttp://www.stevemead...future-updates/ 96 ss http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/164094-96-impala-ss-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wadewills Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 I would try and find an amp to test In place of yours. If it plays fine you know you have a bad amp.
