due to the fact that im paranoid i have been listening to the intake
when i drive there is a slight like whistle every so often and im not sure if there is something wrong or if it does this every so often
also when i start to slow down it sounds like there is a kind of squeak like if your brakes are already going bad but its like for a mili second
what do you think?
it sounds fine when the engine is just running and i tightened everything like ultra good so im not sure

One intake manufacturer's slogan is something like... The whistle lets you know its working.
I hear it on mine as well...
Don't know about your "squeak" though!

i dunno if its a squeak or maybe its a whitstle also , do you have any audio coming from it when you slow down or are coming to a stop

ok ok ill chill .. but i will say that it sounds way better and the response is great so i have to say its a definate investment . i only wish they had the hypertech programmer for the 4.7

Just a matter of time... Superchips makes a programmer also, but not for your year.... yet.
Oh by the way, Innerreflection, I checked out your jeep on your website and it's hot. Everything was done in good taste and I even like the exhaust tone you went with.

On mine my intake never whistle it just made a cool sucking sound that made my engine sound powerful :) but when I had put in my tb spacer then I started to get the whistling noise
