loud sucking sound from intake?

before i added my midpipe to my K&N filter i had a low sucking sound coming from the intake. but after i added the midpipe the noise got so loud that at idle i can hear it inside the car with the radio off. i dont believe any hoses are loose. is this normal?

any info would be appreciated.

Yeah, the midpipe usually makes things a bit louder.

A loud sucking noise coming from the intake is a good sign.
