Default Strange sound coming out from P-flow

hey guys. I just installed my p-flow recently. But i started to notice a sound coming out of the intake when ihit the gasin 3rd or 4th gear, around 2.5k rpm. It sounds like the intake rattling, or a loose screw jumping. Is anybody having this problem also, or is it just me? i'm pretty worried that the intake's gonna fall off or something since the intake itself only has one screw that holds on to it.

Open up the hood and check all the hardware. There is one bolt, that most CAI's utilize to attach at themiddle right hand side of the engine, which might be loose?




Cheers!

yea i check that screw as well. i think it might be the clamp located on the silicone hose that connects the intake and the turbo inlet. there's only a little gap b/w the clamp and engine parts. might just go to ACE later to get some foam to put it b/w them and see what happens.
