hmm... took it for another drive... seems to be anytime I give it a little gas... whistle or hiss seems to be coming from my intake...
perhaps my intake drawing in more air now due to increased space?

sighhhh.... I've had the intake on for several months with no hissing. so I'm guessing the spacer had to do with the sound now..Originally Posted by PLENUMCOUPE
