you sure its coming from the intake manifold?!?! and not from underneath the maifold somewhere and it just looks like the manifold.

if it is for sure coming from the intake manifold:
i said the gasket because even if something was smoking, it should not escape from under your intake manifold...that should be sealed tight (where smoke cant come out). im thinking blown gasket..which would cause the pressurized air to be pushing out the little crease making a wierd noise. makes sense to me...:dunno:

its not the back turbo leaking oil onto the manifold by any chance? did you get your turbos done young?

im thinking rear turbo, I would check the rear IC pipe for a lot of oil.

if the blades are hitting the turbo housing it would be a metal on metal sound.

Hello I just bought a 1993 3000gt vr4 and I tried to put an intake the HKS dual filter but it didnt work because I need to plug in the air flow sensor. I also bout a filter with an adapter and it looks like my turbos over boost. It seems like its getting a lot of air but the engine dies:( what kind of high performance intake should I get and how can I make it work. thank you
