CAI Question

b1gdaddy98 · February 16th, 2010, 05:04 PM

Ok, I installed the cai i bought from AM today...it was not as easy as they made it sound the pipe seems like it was too long it was a tight fit but I eventually got it in and I had to cut the hose that goes into the new pipe because the original hose was to long. My question is this when I get into the car now to drive when it idles or I give it gas with no music on there is a whistle sound. Is this normal? The car seems to drive fine I drove it around and it doesn't overheat or have any check engine lights on and everything seems fine just kinda worried me a little. I'm uploading pics of the install.

the whisle is the air flowing, so that means it works. Looks good man.
