Default Acceleration Issue

I dont know why but on my 2000 Mustang everytime I accelerate it sounds like there is a rattle coming from the engine. I took it to the mechanic but nothing has been found wrong with it. Anyone ever encounter this problem? I seriously need to figure out what the issue is because I am trying to sell my car.

its possible since you had to connect part of the intake to the TB.
make sure the CAi is securely in place.
