Anyone can help me figure out what causes that high-pitched interference with the audio? It's not my turbo. I'm going to have to get a higher quality mic. The mic in the video came integrated with the mini security camera I'm using as a dashcam.

Is your recorder running off battery power or from the 12v aux (cig lighter plug)? If off the 12v aux, try using the built in batteries on the recorder for a run or two. It sounds to me like alternator whine or some other auto electrical interference. Also try putting your recorder in a different location too as another experiment.
