Some whistle, some whine, some sound like exhaust. The smaller the opening, the louder the whistle would be tho.

mine makes a sound kind of like this but its anytime i get into boost it sounds like the bov is going off( i have the rice plate). I used to spike 20 and hold 17 and now i dont boost over 15. i tightened all the piping and checked all the vaccum lines and it still makes this sound. Anyone have an idea what it could be?

I had this problem a couple of weeks ago. The problem was (atleast for me) the filter on my CAI was not on all the way and it wasn't tightened down. After I made sure the filter was on all the way and tightened the shit out of it, the "supercharger whine" went away.

Ill def check the filter to make sure.

Cleaned and oiled my filter no change.

Tea Pot Mod FTW

^^^ROFL..... way to be positive.

Tea pot mod... I think thats more important than the driver mod. I can hear my turbo now, at 5 vacuum... Sounds like a friggin diesel. That normal? I cut the bottom of the stock airbox off, so it sounds like an aftermarket intake.

Mine wines when i accelerate in first only what is it, sounds like its coming from the drivers side in the engine bay.

Tony35 · 10-28-2008, 12:56 PM

^ yeah its def on the driver side in the engine bay. I actually noticed i have a boost leak. Where the hot side intercooler pipe goes into the intercooler. Its actually rubbin up on the tranny and ripped a whole in it. Im thinkin it might just be the intake and since theres a leak itsa causing the turbo to work alot harder and is causeing the whine.

I can hear my "Tea Pot Mod" over my turbo and engine at WOT and I think its pretty cool lol, some people asked me if it was my turbo spooling before hahaha... I wouldnt change that sound on my car for nothing I Love It, unless of course its damaging something
