My Apexi intake makes the same noise, a whistle at around 2500 rpms, i dont think it is anything you need to worry about.

BewstAdd1ct

you just replaced the airbox with a cone filter, right?

KCMOMaxima

No I replaced the box with a berk intake and apexi cone filter, what kind of intake did you get?

My berk makes the same sound around 2-3k rpm so i think its just normal.

my stillen, berk, and GAB all made the sound. its the air getting sucked into the throttle body

and that's different from the bees-in-the-can sound you'd get from one of em older y-pipes...

Does anyone know of a way to fix the whistling noise from my intake at certain rpms? I know it has nothing to do with my aftermarket air filter, as I have heard the whistle with the air filter off as well as the MAF manifold off. I believe the whistle comes from air going through a fan blade at a specific speed that makes a resonating sound at a perfect frequency to make that noise. I had originally thought it was something like a small leak/hole that air was trying to come from when I fully opened throttle.

Anyways... I was hoping that someone had thought a solution that would help reduce this noise... as the intake sounds great, but the whistle is obnoxious.
