Ive been having this noise since I installed z-tube/stillen CAI/MD 5/16 spacer.
The noise sounds like air sucking plus high pitch noise when I kick the gas hard and quick. I could hear a bit in low rpm but it's louder when Im on high RPM.
I assumed its from the compressor, but mechanic said it is pop charger noise.
Im just wonder if it's normal.
any guys have same noise like me??

Sorry I found some thread, but Im still lost tho....
sometimes better be paranoid than sorry especially when it comes to my G.

 

Yup, I got the same thing once I installed my MD spacer. At first I wasnt to sure about it, but now I LOVE the sound. You can even make your car whistle at a hot girl walking down the street lol

 

Thanks bro.
Def gotta try that whistle thing

 

Yeah I noticed it when going WOT with my MREV. Sounds like the turbine of an airplane lol.

 

I had it with my stock config but is much more pronounced now with the ztube and stillen cai. Yeah sounds like a whistle or a short dump of a turbo waste gate.

Any idea how to remediate this?

Found by searching ... jus' pluggin the search engine too.

 

Absolutely normal. Have mrev and cai and ztube. Does the exact same thing. I don't know how to get rid of it, but it sounds cool, why bother.

 

ohh it is driving me freakin nutz. Sunds like a squeaky bed spring

 

I get the same sound when I blip the throttle at idle. Haven't noticed it at running rpm's. I guess everything is too loud to tell, now. When I first installed the MREV+ back in October, I noticed this sound at idle with the hood propped up. It was a very pronounced quick and short sucking sound, if you will. I contacted Tony and he said that everything was fine. It seems that, at the time with my Z tube/K&N combo and the new MREV+, there was more air passing through the throttle body assembly . . . and thus the reason for the sound.

 

well if anything at least I ca take comfort in knowin nothing is fubar'd. I had the problem even with the stock intake system but now it is more pronounced.

Thanks for the info though guys.

I love the deep tone the setup generates though. Almost most as nice as a sensual moaning in the ear during well you know

 

I wonder if the MAF is acting like a whistle when the rush of air hits it. After there aftermarket MAFs. If so has anyone experienced this issue and have it go away after a swap of the MAF?

 

Ive got the same setup, 5/16 mrev+, Stillen CAI, and Ztube...yea, to my it sounds like a Turbo spooling up... it is directly related to how much throttle im giving it. I thought mine at first was a leak somewhere, but i think ive retightened those bolts enough times now. Im glad some other people are hearing it too, it was driving my crazy.

Ive got a question to all you who ARE hearing the noise. When you installed the MREV+.............. In between the upper and lower plenums, where you installed the spacer.... Did everyone Reuse the OEM Gasket? I literally left it in place, and put the Spacer over it.. which would be TWO GASKETS. i thought this was right since the only other option is to cut the middle part out, lay it flat, and lay the spacer over it. i didnt want to cut it up incase i needed it. what did you guys do? Reuse it underneath (two gaskets) or somehow modify it?

 

did you do all the mods at once or in stages?

 

i installed my CAI with my ZTube and then about 3 weeks later, the MREV+.... what about the gasket issue, can someone chime in?

 

What about Weapon R... could someone that is using their cai chime and let me/us know if you get the whistle sound.

 

bump... anyone with weapon r have the whslte sound?
