i know this is hardly a high performance piece in the truest sense, but does anyone else have a short ram that whistles a bit. i have dc sports short ram and it whistles slightly under load. it doesn't do it when i'm under the hood revving it (at least that i hear) and i've double-checked to make sure it is all tightened down.

is it normal to whistle?

yeah, i think that is perfectly normal, i myself have an AEM Short Ram (i don't wanna risk getting water in my car since i live in kenosha, wi) does it "whistle" while the car idles??

well m cai does that too. it's pretty normal to have that whistle since there is no resonator

cool thanks. just wanted to make sure. i've been running the car with the airbox top slightly opened and didn't have it. i'm surprised, the car is actually quieter now.
