    Hissing/Flowing Noise

    When I really give it gas there's a hissing kind of noise coming from up front, but kinda flowing too...sort of like pumping water or air through a PVC pipe but not quite that hollow sounding and with more S sound. I've had the car tested for exhaust leaks but they said they didn't find anything wrong, and I don't think my performance has suffered any. Any ideas? Should I be worried?

    sounds like you're describing the noise the CAI makes.

    Ok someone give me the smacking icon so I can smack myself...that thought didn't even cross my mind since I was so busy linking the sound to the exhaust.

    For some reason that pic is bringing back pugil memories...my first time I got busted the second the drill instructor said go. :cry:
