i recently installed a weapon- r short ram on my 01 cl-s. ever since its been making a very louding humming noise not like the common induction sound from an intake. the humming is much louder than the car at idle. anyone know whats up?

 

Normal.

 

Had this same problem in my car. Found it was my Airbox nt Sealing Right.

 

Hes running an aftermarket intake. The humming noise is just the air being sucked into the filter at low rpms. Its perfectly normal.

 

especially on short rams. i think its not a noticable on CAIs

 

alright thanks for the help.

 

False. I have an AEM V2 CAI and it hums VERY loud! I didn't like the hum at first, but I got used to it. The CAI sounds really good though when I am driving

 

wow hey carmodifier ive seen the white heat before and i loved it. u got a sick car man.

 

Thanks man, I appreciate it! Just wait until you see her rockin' the newest mods. These are just a few of them:

I also have RonJon Legend Type II's in reflective silver finish wrapped in BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW NT's waiting to be installed

 

I used to post pics of parts in boxes all the time, used to get flamed non-stop for it

Can't wait to see all those goodies on the car

 

I like part pics because they help build-up the suspense for the install

 

Yeah mine does it too, i get alot of people saying my car sounds like a vaccum haha

 

thats exactly what my mechanic said.

its soo damn loud. Even at idle! I have an oem air box too.

even other people are like wtf is that noise? kinda embarrassing

 

There's a box looking thing on the bottom of the intake tube going into the throttle body. This is a resonator & without it the intake will hum loudly.

 

What fuzzy said. Or its possible the top isnt sealing properly.

 

+1 to both answers. I had some pretty noisy humming and I have the resonator removed but after I pressed around the top of the airbox, the humming went away so I tightened the airbox some more and fixed it.
