Exclamation Resonator Removed, Makes WOOO sound, annoying
Hello, I have an 03 Acura 3.2TL Type S, i got it off auction and before i had a chance to drive it around and listen to the engine i took the resonating chamber off. When the car is running i hear this really obvious and annoying loud WOOOOO sound. its coming from the intake system. I know this because when i temporarily took off the filter box i could hear the sound from the intake. Is this a normal sound, or should i be worried.

The only time it bothers me is when I shut the car off.

The choice is remove it or no CAI. I choose CAI.

Resonator box
I like the fact you took off the intake resonator BEFORE you ever drove the car even one time.
