I got it too. Brian said that it may be coming from the piping rubbing the rubber seal. Yeah, I know, it's pretty irritating. I just haven't found the time to fix it.

a sponge will always do the trick, or if it's hitting the edge of the hole put some weatherstripping in there.

As a edge protector I used a big black circular rubber that came off the MAF. And bout the sound my friend has a 6th gen with injen CAI and it sounds super loud mine just sounds like a low growl not as loud as the injen.
