Default air intakes

hey guys i know on my car (dodge stratus) after putting on my intake and replacing alot of plastic I hear a loud hissing sound, especially when i turn on my ac. When looking at the size of the stock air box in the honda, it didnt look all the big or anything, so i was wondering if you guys get much of a hissing sound from the intake? I'm not too fond of the sound after hearing it for so long and having to tell everyone who passes by my car that nothings wrong with it. Thanks

you probably dont hear it for the fact of longer piping and its "resonated" by the wheel well
