Default Turbo'ed car---Whining noise from speakers---now car wont start. HELP!

I tried searching...but its kinda hard to pull up result on this one....

Ok, first off, the car in question is not a honda. Its a 95' Infiniti G20.

Anyway, my friend is running a turbo setup with mostly stock parts, Vortech FMU, and a mild sound system. last night as he was leaving the store, the car started up and there was some major 'whining' noises from the speakers.

Car started, drove it home. Today, tried to start it up, and the car went crazy!! Alarm started to go off, wipers turned on. Then he tried to crank it 1 more time, and the car goes SPAAAAAT. And now it's just dead. Not 100% sure what exactly is going on, Im about to go take a look.

Any ideas? I'm thinking electrical short? Possibly ground? Any ideas or tips would GREATLY be appreciated!

thanks!

I think you answered your own question..
If speakers are making wierd noises and your alarm is going off for no reason, Id go back and check all the wiring.

GL!

Check the grounds for sure.

There are grounding issues.

Take that FMU out and light it on fire then **** on it.

Probably a ground, but don't rule out things like a spark plug wire or an alternator.
