Yup, it's the actual design of the throttle body plate and butterfly. The way it allows air to pass the butterfly makes it whistle at certain rpms. Nothing wrong with the car. ![]() Ignorance is bliss....305 fo life!...haha...Poser |

It makes people do a double take when I whistle through gears. It's especially loud on SRI |

Guys, thank you! Now I can sleep easier. I have just installed Fujita Air intake today and I heard the same whistling noise at low rpms (usually when I press the gas pedal slightly). I kind of got worried since I thought I did something wrong during the installation (even thought I know I followed all steps correctly). Again, it makes sense what you have explained. Right on! Peace... Zima A car is good reflection of its owner’s personality. |

Lol I was thinking the same thing when I first installed mine. I love that intake though. I have worked with Injen and AEM and I have to say I like Fujita the best as of so far! ![]() |

Absolutely, turbo sounds completely different. When I first installed Fujita I kind of suspected that the throttle body butterfly was making that sound at low rmps. However, I was concerned if something was obstructing the airflow which kind of freaked me out. I got used to the sound, and right now I need to say I really like it!
