Injen CAI sound

Hey for all of you who installed the Injen intake with the extension, do any of you hear the intake more when you start up the car after it has been parked for a long time (like over night) or did I just install mine incorrectly. After the car warms up and has been working for a while I don't hear it anymore, but when I just start it up after it has been resting for a long time it makes almost a sort of whistling sound, like there is an air leak?

Thanks

Thats normal. It'd also make that sound w/o the extension.

Yea that's pretty normal. When the car is first started up after not being in use for awhile, the engine idles fairly higher than usual. I like the sucking sound that the intake makes . . . pretty cool. I have a short ram Injen intake with a Blitz mesh filter. Sucka is pretty loud too. Peace.

Yup. With the supercharger it sounds like a blow-off valve from a turbo when the car is just started.

Do yall notice it different from when you had just the injen short ram on?
Becuse with the short ram its pretty loud(when the engine is cold), I can't imagine it louder. I guess I'll find out in a week or so :wink:

Yep, the sound is normal. Add that SC and the sound really gets sweet..

You will love it. If you don't have an exaust system you will notice an even louder sound when you throtle-up. But yes even with the short-ram you get that hisssssssssSooksookhsssssssssshookssssss sound.
