 I just hooked sub up to my car and i went around my neighborhood to test them out. on the way back to my house my car started misfiring and stalled it kept doing this until i unplugged my remote wire to turn off the amp. The ride was at most 2 minutes long and i didn't have the sub even up half way! if anyone has anyclue of why my car is doing this please help me out. The amp is a mono block Alpine 500 watt with a kicker CVR 12"
thanks

 yea im very sure i have it ran properly i just dont understand why it would have anything to do with my car stalling and misfiring. Maybe pulling to much power off the battery? i dont have a capacitor. i dont know im clueless....

 i attached my power wire to the battery terminal... so could it be that the screw is not on there tight enough????

 does the power in the car keep cutting off? lights, radio, time reset...? check it to make sure everything is tight and connected again

 ok i checked the wiring and called around they said it could be my oxygen sensor or my computer the 8 gauge power wire was next to both of these. the code on my OBD reader says P 0103. the code is for MAF or VAF a Circuit High input. is there any way that i could have messed up my computer with having the power wire so close??

 I found out what it was.. It was the Massive airflow sensor was bad. so i replaced it and runs fine.. So it wasnt the speakers it just so happened to happen 2 minutes after i had the subs hooked up
