intake whistle problems

[fitvpower]

hey i installed an intake for the throaty sound, i duuno why i get a whistle when i accelerate between shifts. I tried gentle acceleration and it still give a whistle sound. Not that i dunt like the it but it sounds like turbo and since im P platter, i dunt wanna get the cops attention. any one got ne suggestions? ps this does not happen on stock air box though

[Mrgigolo]

Im pretty sure thats the air intake sucking in the air....

yupz.. does that with mine... everytime u give it, you can hear a faint whistle noise

[aaronng]

Check that you are not leaking any air around the K&N filter...

yeh ive got it too. and on gear changes too. don't know if its very audible from the outside but ive had a bomb of a commodore ask me if it was turbo. but don't know if they heard it or just randomly asked me?

personally ive heard the intake whistle on a mazda 3 on the freeway. think could only hear it when my windows were down though. and it definetly was not turbo coz i know the guy who drives it kinda.

[NightKids]

AEM intake here & does it too.... sounds nice!

[EuroAccord13]

Sometimes it can also be because the filter is too small or restrictive..

I've got gruppem for my jazz and it also makes the same noise that you described.

[kairi_k]

its normal, sounds alright...like another member said just accelerate smooth near cops..but is the sound because of exposed pod or alike? air sucking in more?

what are ppls experiences with boxed intakes?

[A.G.System]

modded eg box. k&n pannel.

just a meaty vtec grunt at 4k :)

so its just the pods id say

I gotta try over 6k rpm. Been cheap trying to save petrol revving to a max of 4k these days...
