I've had to jump my car like god knows how many times over the past year. The only modification i have done to my car during that time was to remove the cats and install an X pipe. With that i installed the bbk eliminators so that the check engine light wouldn't be on 24/7. If anyone has any idea what might be up i'd be greatful, i have replaced my battery during this period and that hasnt really helped with the problem??
 
Sounds like you need to do some electrical troubleshooting. Try hooking up a voltmeter to your battery, then with the vehicle off, start yanking fuses, one by one.. and see which one makes the voltage go up. Once you figure out which one is draining power, you can troubleshoot from there.
 
Just on the off chance, get your alternator tested also. It may not be puttting as much of a charge on the batt. as it should be. I would have to agree though that if you have a full charge on the batt. at night and it is dead by morning then you either have a dead cell (been know to happen on new batteries) or you have a power leach somewhere.
 
Any aftermarket electronics in there? Had a deck turn into a power leach after been in for a year and half. But yeah grab your multimeter and check the alt., batt, and then batt off till you find it.
