Hello all,
Just curious- when getting on the gas (not flooring it), does everyones CAI kinda whistle?? I'm just trying to make sure that this isnt a problem and that it should make this sound. From what I understand, late model 06's do not have an air silencer, so im guessing this could be the cause.
PS- ive had the car for just a lil over a week now, so im just being safe. []

 

Do you have an aftermarket intake or the stock airbox? Every car ive had that i put and after market intake on you could hear a whistle sound on accelration. It's just the tube sucking in all that air.

 

I don't even have a CAI yet and mine whistles

 

Good, I was just noticing that in the last couple of weeks on my CAI.... glad nothing is wrong.[8D]

 

every intake i've had on previous cars whistled, it's normal

 

On a 95 Mustang I installed an aftermaket air intake setup that had a whistle/hiss type sound. (no leaks, I checked) I figured it was the smooth tube to the filter. Put on the serrated type stock intake back on and no noise. I'm not going to say all aftermarket ones do it but the cheap one I got off Ebay did. I did read long ago that's why stock air cleaner setups are serrated type for noise reduction.

 

sorry, i should have clarified. I have a stock intake. which whistles...sounds cool as long as theres nothing wrong lol.

 

I have a stock Aribox and I hear the whistle all the time. I'm guessing it's normal.

 

Mine does not whistle

 

anyone else?? i mean its not a loud whistle... i turn the radio down and when i get on it... it'll whistle.
