Shortram hisss

Hey all..i just put in the shortram last night. Took it for a spin and VRAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMM...it sounds amazing. Theres all sorts of hissing sounds that come from it though...at idle when im moving very slowly and especially when i turn the car off. Normal?
Thanks

assuming you have all the vacuum lines hooked up right--yes. it's the "giant sucking sound"..

the short ram sounds awesome tho. had one on my 98 av6 and loved it.

Yeah normal. I hated it. That's why I got the CT Icebox. That doesn't make those noises.

What kind of gains does a shortram produce?

Is it made for the 6 speed?

How much is it?



Sorry for the :noob: questions.
