So I was playing it yesterday and it staryed to get stinky so I stopped then about 10-15 minutes later I played again and it got even worse smelling and it shut off. Now only one side works and when I turn the volume up to 35-40/62 the speakers get super distorted. Also when no music is playing the sub makes a whining noise and it also really distorted. Any ideas? It was on 1500 watts in a 6.8 cbft box @ 33hz

Measure the coils with a DMM and see if they look dark/black

Also push on the cone and see if it makes a scraping noise

10 bucks says you were clipping - caused by turning your gain up too high

Rev your car. Does the whining change with the rpm of your engine?

You DIDNT blow your sub from under powering it you blew it from clipping the living fuck out of it. You were not running near enough power for the sub so to compensate you turn the volume knob up, past the point of clipping. Now you have broken sub.
