that's weird. Spark plug cables don't cause aeroplane sound (alternator whine) wan. But thicker spark plug cables can cause EMI, and u can hear a sound when the spark plugs are firing so it is not a consistent aeroplane sound.

Check ur grounding and power cables for ur amp. That might be the culprit for ur aeroplane sound last time...

last time before put is ok......after put got those interference sound.....the shops ask me to put back ori.....i put back ori then the sound no more.....
i think is the plug cables no good ler.....

hmm... wat kind of interference sound? Spark plug cable interference sounds like "chak chak chak chak", kinda like static and the more u accelerate the faster the sound. Aeroplane sound is just "Whheeeeeeeeeeee" and also high RPM high pitch "wheee" sound.

If you are really confirmed that it is the spark plug cables. Go for spark plug cables with brands, no cap ayam kind. Also, check the diameter of the spark plug cable. Do not go above 8mm. My problem last time I was using 10mm thick spark plug cables. Once i downgraded to 8mm, no problems liao...

not so aeroplane like wiiiiiieeeeee....... but like eeeeeeiiii......... only when i turn on the HU... if the HU is off...no problem...

i was using the 9.8mm then my car is very smooth....nice to start and smooth ride... but ICE problem....our OEM cable quite thin.....so normal only.... so what u using now trex92? how many mm?

 

[trex92]

opss... sorry for the late reply. I am using now 8mm on my Putra and no more interference from the spark plug cables. I think 9.8mm is still kinda thick for u.... I dun understand the sound u hear. is it a continuous sound eeeeeeeeiii, or break in sound like eeeeii eeeeii eeeeeii....?

hurricane cables are crap
2 core or 5 core also crap
y not try NGK Power Cable , Ultra Plug Cable , MSD Plug Cable

try change ur plugs man..example...NGK R...with resistor...

quote from NGK website

"Several spark plugs are available for use in automobiles. Among spark plugs for automobile use are Green plugs, projected gap plugs, platinum plugs, Iridium plugs and multiple ground electrode plugs. Recent vehicles mainly use resistor plugs, which restrain the ignition noise that is created by a spark, and thus suppress the noise in the car radio, cellular telephone and in on-board control systems."
