Default Intake humming?

I just installed an AEM short ram on my friends 97 accord SE. He has been driving it for about 2 weeks now, and recently it has started making a humming noise. This happens even @ idle. It's comming from the intake for sure. I'm thinking it's just audible through the intake, but it's comming from inside the motor. Any suggestions?

Just check to make sure all the couplings and seals are tight. Other than that humming noises for intakes are pretty much normal....

Cool, thanks. I never noticed it as loud on any of my cars.
