it is genius i just hope they leave some of the nicer sports cars alone and also i wonder if that would make it harder for techs to diagnose noises from the inside of a car? they should at least offer a way to turn it off or make it an option that you dont have to get.

i checked out the intake and it seemed to be clear and had no breaks or debris however i did notice a loose connection from the bottom of the filter housing to the fender but i fixed that and didn’t change anything, but i also noticed when i had the housing for the intake apart and i started the car there was a humming noise and ive always noticed this noise but it seems to be getting worse. it is much quieter with the intake all together, and the humming is noticeable in the car when cruising but it sounds like its coming from the passenger side back in the car which is were the gas filler neck is. I also had a friend rev the car when i was looking and im pretty sure now that the actual whistle noise is coming from the area in the photo of the exhaust.

No the intake.is.100% stock with a paper filter however the filter is alittle dirtier than expected because its only 4000 miles old but i will try the link and get back with you thanks for everything

Exactly it seems like the engineers are so focused on “Eco” they forgot about how the car sounds which is important for car lovers

One thing i do think is weird is that its worse the more throttle i give it as in if i just rev it it dosent really make the noise or its very faint but if im driving it and get into it then its a loud whistle
