makesure the wire in the box is tight and not hitting the back of the cone when the sub is moving. i think that's the noise you are hearing.

why do you have a 0awg wire attached to your engine block? what is that for? it should be attached to your alternator not the block

It's really not very good for the amp either, it will sometimes rattle components loose on the board.

I can't really see enough in your pic to tell if there is room to secure it somewhere in the trunk or not. You could mount it the same way that it is sitting now, just not secured to the box. Screw it to the panels in the trunk or something. A lot of people have got away with the amp screwed to the box and had no issues, however there are also just as many people that killed their amp from vibration issues as well. The amp can sometimes take a pretty good beating secured to the box.
