Default Got CAI......whistling noise????wth

So i switched out my shortram for an AEM cold air intake and ever since there is this whistling noise in 2nd gear. Is it from the intake or is something now wrong with my car??

lol this has been covered sooooo many times

its a combination of your air filter and throttle body. Its normal for it to whistle at certain throttle positions. Im just waiting for all the idiots who are gonna post after me saying that it is this and that. Sigh

It is normal and annoying, I switched to the Comptech Icebox since I couldn't take it anymore. Too bad my car rattles like a tank anyway!

ive owned both a short ram and cold air on my DC4, and both whistled , but the short ram is a louder whistle, plus more top end power, SRI IMO..

Actually short ram will whistle more than a cold air, but it's a very common thing for you to hear the whistle.
