ground noise comes from grounds that attach to the chassis at different points. The more power being grounded out at different points, the worse the feedback will be. If you could ground everything on your car to one point, you will not have feedback. Try running the ignition amp ground through the firewall, and ground it where your ground kit is.

what spark plug wires are you running, some wires will produce the signal that's going to mess with your radio.
