Default AEM short ram on a d16z

I installed an AEM short ram intake made for a 92-95 civic into a 95 civic EX with a stock d16z6 (or 7?). Pretty simple right? Well this thing whistles pretty damn loud. Is that normal? anyone have this same setup? I would appreciate any pics of the intake installed so i can make sure i mounted everything right because i suspect it might be crooked causing the whistle. Where does the rubber support mount go? THANKS!!!!

check the step hose, and all the clamps, etc. My friend's AEM CAI would do that and he got it installed at a shop. Might just be an AEM thing. My injen short ram did it once though when the intake got loose from the throttle body.

im pretty sure everything is nice and tight. it doesnt sound like a leak but just a loud whistle i can hear all the time. Even when im on the freeway.

Id really like to see a picture of an AEM short ram in a 92-95 civic to see how its mounted.

Save money for swap insted of wasting on d16z - don't get me wrong, not a bad engine, but not a powerful engine - not bad w/ turbo though - something to think about.
