Injen cai chuffle/odd noise?

***Freq18hz*** · 04-17-2007, 04:06 PM

I got an Injen intake installed yesterday and I am hearing a weird sound at idle, when I tap the throttle. It almost sounds like someone blowing on the end of a pipe really quickly...like a *chuffle* as if I am hearing the pipe resonate/air blow out of it. Its quite loud...about as loud as a blow off valve....

Can anyone confirm if this noise is normal?

I am concerned there is a leak/hole somewhere.

I have this sound (I wouldn't call it noise) of air moving into my intake tube on my SRI. This has to be what you are hearing. I can tell you that mine got less and less noticible as everything got broken-in well...
