I installed a homemade CAI this evening and have a question. I hear a hissing sound when accelerating. Is this normal and I am hearing it now since I no longer have the "airbox" on the truck?

 

i got a red 01 durango R/T with flowmaster, hopefully getting ame intake, superchip, header, and anything eles i can find not shere what works the best on this suv.

 

yea, thats normal. i cant hear it over my exhaust, but ive heard other people talk about it so yea, its pretty common.

 

Yes this is very normal. The factory box was designed to hide this, which slows the intake of cold air. Pics of your work are required though! Post them up!

 

i'm w/ bain64, i want pics of the home brew intake.

 

as soon as im done with it ill show ya some pics of my remote mounted turbo oops did i say that outloud hehe

 

Thank guys! I was assuming the noise was ok but wanted to be sure. As far as pictures, I still need to paint it. Right now it is plain white **** pipe. Wanted to get the benefit so I installed it and will make it look good when I get some time. Then I will post some pics.

 

did u use pvc pipe?
i heard abs is better if u can find it.

 

i still need to get a red hemi sticker for my intake to add some red under the hood on my intake.

 

I went with PVC.
