Whistling noise from intake???
My spyder has the following mods....1g BOV, Injen Intake, DP and Hi-Flow cat. If you are sitting still, or even moving, when you let off the gas there is a whistling noise coming from the intake. Sounds kind of like the factory BOV when the car was stock, except this noise is longer and not as high pitched. It only does it at certain rpm's, namely right around 2000. I cleaned it the other day and it sounded a little better but not much of a change at all. Any Ideas????
By the way...it didn't do this for the first year I had it.

Well it's actually comming out of the filter not the piping.

Re: Whistling noise from intake???
Does the filter have a rip or hole in it?

Re: Whistling noise from intake???
k&n are designed to use the "dirt" as part of the filtering media i dont have the site but look up k&n filters and read about them

Re: Whistling noise from intake???
i heard the K&N has the best filtration while the HKS which is what i use has the best flow.

Re: Whistling noise from intake???
No....the last time I cleaned it I didn't see a rip or hole. It is only about 2 years old and I thought they were supposed to last for longer than that. It's the filter that comes with the Injen Intake (I don't know if it's made by K&N or not).

Re: Whistling noise from intake???
i'd say get a new filter... and i'm not sure if that HKS one your using Rocket is foam or not, if it is watch it!!! i just seen one that started to disinagrate cause it got a little moisture on it and the motor sucked the whole foam piece up into the head! wasnt pretty, good thing it was a honduh!!!
