Maybe its a coincidence? Check to make sure your wheel well covers (splash guards) arent falling out or something. Also make sure theres nothing obstructing the filter (plastic, leaves, wrappers?) look to make sure theres nothing left inside the induction tube itself.

It shouldn't hit against anything if installed properly.

Could be , id think you would know that right away. the V2 should have a mounting brack that holds it up by the strut tower, that would keep it from touching/rattling against things.

YEA..he;s right i bought a'00 si with I/H/E. It has a AEM short ram intake and it wistles when you give more than 25% throttle. You sure the tire noise isn't from ur tires dude?

Sounds like you solved your own problem

Btw, are you sure you bought the correct intake, for example, not a GSR intake, because the manifolds TB position is different between some B series.
