Hello,

Got a quick question... I installed a CAI intake.. After I installed it when the car idles it sounds like a deep hummm... I mean it is LOUD. I have installed a couple of intakes before and nothing has sounded like this before.

It's not like the lound flow of air sound but a deep Vibrate sound? Does the 3.0 sound like this with a CAI?

The 3.0 sounds like that also, really depends on the filter and the resonator box

 

I have a 2.2 and it sounds like that two. It is fine. No worries.

 

Wow, I thought this was a 3.0 SRI only problem.....interesting..

 

I'm getting quite tired of mine and its whistling, whenever I give the car gas above about 2500rpm it whistles till about the time vtec starts. Many people think it's a loose belt, because it's so high pitched. I've tried an APC filter and now have a large K&N, same noise, so it must be the TB, or intake manifold, either way its obnoxious.

 

I have a cai with k&n filter on my 3.0 and my hum is very low and hardly noticeable, the last SRI i had the hum was way too loud

 

what brand of intake do you guys have? I have heard that the size of the pipe can make a difference in performance as well as sound. A larger intake doesnt necessarily mean more power. I know AEM's intake is only 2.75in wide and some others run 3in.

 

I run an Ebay intake

 

Haha I love that whistle. For me it's more of a loud sucking sound that only lasts half a second. Kinda like a "Pshhh" from a BOV.

Most of us use $40 3" ebay intakes (I recommend bomz racing) with K&N filters.

 

I think all intakes are like that lol

My 3.2 Does it too but so did my Sunfire

 

Wow I just brought up that old topic Tehvine showed by accident, meant to type here.

You guys all runnin BOMZ?

 

Mine is a cheapo ebay intake. I actually am running the cold air portion of a accords intake as a ram air it fits just fine. And yea she humms like a hooker on a ball sack lolz.
