My short ram makes a whistling noise at about 1800 RPMs or so and im starting to get sick of it. My clamps are all pretty tight, and I dont know what it could be from. Can anyone who has had the same problem before tell me how to fix it without just going back to stock?

 

if its making a high pitched whistle at low rpm's then goes away and turns into a growl when you get on it, then this is regular, you do not have a problem.

 

yeah, a whistle is the nature of an intake. as long as it's not overly obvious.

 

TRU DAT or maybe u gotta turbo under ur hood that u dont know bout, jk..

 

if you have a mid pipe try using the stock resonator. it ususally quiets it down enough to not notice.

 

My old JWT popcharger made the same noise under light throttle.

 

i get that whistlin noise around 1800 rpms w/ the A/C on and 3000 rpms w/ light throttle ubt i kinda like it car souinds more aggressive than it really is

 

...he probably does have a boost sensor

 

i like that sound. its only under light throttle, but it does sound kind of like a turbo. i love that nice growl you get though.

 

dude its not that big of a deal, u can hardly even hear it and goes away pass 1800rpm

 

glad to know that it's normal..

 

OT(sorry) yea, whats that boost sensor at the beginning of the stock intake on the snorkel for ?

 

You mean the MAF sensor?

 

no, I specifically said boost sensor.....lol
ill go get a pic soon....

edit: heres the pic and please ignore my ****-striken engine bay.lol

 

we got the same battery!!

 

OMG!!! I just cant believe we all got the same engines, mirrors, hoods, doors, etc.....lol

 

I have the same noise, and that happened right after I installed my mid-pipe, it sounds real nice...dont hate...apreciate..

 

so does anyone know what that boost sensor is for....?

 

Nothing important. Just leave it alone. Mine is just dangling in the engine bay.

 

My CAI is beyond overly abundantly hissing at idle. It is a little annoying.
