"Whistling" Noise
"Whistling" Noise
So I installed my Fujita Sri, not the dual ones. And after I heard this weird noise I came on here and did a search. Alot of people say they have a "Whistling" noise from most aftermarket intakes on the VQ. But I wouldnt call the noise Im hearing a whistle lol. Its more like a high-pitched shriek. It sounds like two pieces of metal rubbing against each other. Is that the "whistle" you guys speak of? I wish there was an audio clip somewhere.
It sounds horrible. Enough to make me want to go back to stock.
I hope the tube isnt rubbing against something, it doesnt look like it.

Hmm, I don't have a Fujita but my JWT makes a whistling noise, if only for a little bit at a time. The sound you describe doesn't sound good though, I'd double check your install.
I just installed my Fujita SRI last week with no problems. It's true that most every aftermarket intake has a whistle noise to it but definitely not a metal to metal shreik that you speak of. My advice is to take off the intake and re-install it. What you should hear is a slight whistle when accelerating normally and a slighly deeper exhaust note. When fully accelerating, you will hear a really deep noise in the higher RPM's (more so if your a/c is off). Hope you find the problem and here's a video of what the intake is suppose to sound like.
