Hey guys I have made a few posts about the grinding sound while accelerating and i have a had some work done to correct the problem but now i am noticing a creaking tyope noise coming from the drivers side right around the tube assembly. The Berk intake i have is nice and snug but i was wondering if anyone else has had a problem with a creaking noise during acceleration and turning coiming from the intake.

 

pull the berk intake off and take it back to nissan. i have the berk prototype intake and have no problems.

 

i have it on my 03 and it's sound's really nice and it gives you sound after 4000 rpm

 

do they really add 14hp????

 

i deninately feel the HP increase but i was wondering if you guys hear any other noise besides the ones its supposed to make. Becuase that creaking / grinding noise i hear comes from that area of the engine compartment.

 

I don't have a Berk but rather use a Jim Wolf Technology brand that I purchased from my Nissan dealer.

You can hear it a little when you first get on the throttle (short quick air sucking sound) but after that not much. I used to hear the same sound from an old Mustang I had.

 

I don't know about most of you but about 1/2 a year ago i owned an 04 Altima and i had berk on that and love it. I always hear the sucking sound and the power was nice. I bought the berk for my 05 max now and i don't hear the sucking sound or feel any power increase at all... anyone expereience this?

 

i have the problem, check the bolt, make sure its secure, it might be that it is loose and is moving around causing a sound of a bolt sliding on metal. thats what sound i get. i fixed it by secure the bolt with another nut, so that it would not move and cause the hissing sound.
hope that helps.
