after installing new lim gaskets my car has this loud noise coming through the throttle body, I thought it was a vacuum leak but i cant find any leaks with carb cleaner and it holds vac pressure just fine. while i was replacing the gaskets i replaced the plugs and wires aswell as made a custom intake and changed the sc coupler. Basically im looking for any ideas im lost. heres a video of what it sounds like. GTP Noise - YouTube

open cone lets you hear a lot more of the inside of the engine, does the noise let up after the car warms up? if so its normal.
or put your stock air box back on to make sure.

No... that is literally the wrong noise. Um. It kind of sounds like a bad coupler?
Or maybe your intake is vibrating in your fenderwell? It sounds like some hot and steamy metal-on-metal action. Plus a weird whining that sounds sorta like you don't have enough fluid in your power steering reservoir?

Its not throwing any codes btw, i just replaced the coupler and i defiantly doesnt sound like it did with the blown coupler (it sounded like rocks in the sc)
As for the intake vibrating, it made the same noise with just the stock intake tube on the tb

im gonna let it run for awhile and see what happens

Sounds like power steering.

take off the s/c belt and see if it goes away

i used a turkey baster to get some of the ps fluid out and its jet black.Originally Posted by dsmuts
Should i just get as much as i can out with the baster and dump new fluid in or is there a way to drain it?

you could take the lines off the rack but that's a lot of work. I'd take as much out of the res as i could and then refill with new.

i noticed it had a whine when you steer and sorta does at idle but thats not the weird noise i was trying to show in the video.
11-16-2011
The whine or the intake noise?
11-16-2011
the intake noise is what im trying to figure out, it should be louder because its a short ram intake. it sounds fine at WOT but at idle to like 3grand it sounds like a dying cat

Welcome to the world of 3800 intake noise.

What the hell? My intake noise sounds nowhere near that lol.
That sounds so badass though.
11-16-2011
maybe its normal idk? on the downside of things the lim gaskets are leaking again!
11-16-2011
Its in a garage, that amplifies the noise.
Mine is quite loud as well.

I was talking about the second video he posted.
11-16-2011
if your talking about my car, it sounds the same outside.
I just cant see that as being normal, that intake noise is about 4-5 times louder than the exhaust in person. its to the point it get peoples attention in other cars.

Put your stock intake on and see if it goes away.
