Your hearing it breath I think.. its usually muffled by the incased airbox..the stock box takes in air from the wheel well..so you dont really hear it sucking air...an open breather ( round, free-flo ) is letting it breath. I can hear mine hissing in the cab..LOL at WOT, sounds like its growling right in my dash...

Wait till it's cold outside and you go to start it up. It's real loud then.

I used some blue RTV on the 1/2 plastic spacer. I was worried about air getting to the engine under the filter.

But I Love the sound.
