whistle noises from CAI's are a common thing. It just happens at a certain speed or RPM when the air pressure is right and is sucked across the intake at just the right time. Kinda just like blowing air over the opening of a bottle. Different speed and pressure makes different sounds or none at all.

 

ahhhh......not sure i buy that because the hood actually has a kit for it that allows for the incoming air to dump into the stock located box thus creating ram air. IMO in order to aid in or to help suck warm air out of the engine compartment it would need to be along the lines of the older cowl hoods that are open at the back of the hood near he windshield. The SRT hood is closed off.


Good point weed, i was thinking along those lines to begin with.......just wanted to make sure there was nothing i was missing here

 

Look it up, it is not functional as a ram air hood, it is a heat extractor hood, its the wrong shape/size/angle/ to be a ram air hood. Air flows over the opening which creates a vaccuume affect and sucks out heat from under the hood. For it to become a ram air hood the opening would need to sit up higher and be a bit larger like the venom hoods. Just because there is an aftermarket kit for it (aka not a mopar kit) does not mean that that was what it was designed to do.

 

Nice lookin truck, got a side shot?

 

I've looked and searched and can't seem to find it being called a "heat extractor hood" Maybe you have a secret spot, i dunno, but heres what info i have to go by and with the air director hooking it up to a sealed box, to me it makes all the sense in the world of it being an actually ram air hood. I do grant you on the part of the venom hood though....it's probably gonna have more air flow, if you will, but my hood is OEM and it's steel and that to me is worth it's weight in gold.



When you want a name you can count on use Mopar OEM...........

way to be a newby and not listen to veteran ram owners that have been on the forums for years....do a lil more research or hell with it you know it all....

 

Never said i knew it all did i bub, i just have what is to me factual information about the hood. I didn't post this thread for someone like you to start hammering on me, i simply was wondering if anyone had heard of this hood making noises....thanks again everyone for what help you have given
