whistling noise
 

i have just finished fitting my fmic.
all back together so i have taken it for a quick drive to check for noises/issues prior to map tweak.

it drives fine and boosts fine and reaches full boost.

but when the turbo is spooling up it makes a small whistling noise, now im not sure if this is the induction kit in the wing.

anyone got any ideas and do the induction kits make a noise?

check all the clips, its sucking air in from one of them.

I have an inner wing kit and it makes a big sucking noise, not whistling as such. Maybe different noises for different makes though?

Yes I did this and they all seemed fine and it still reaches full boost on the gauge

I think it is the induction kit, it's just a different noise

If you had the original airbox fitted prior to fitting the FMIC I'd put my money on the induction kit, Has a bit more growl to it and with no airbox the turbo will be heard a lot more spooling up.

You will come to enjoy that noise :D

I think it is that, it's boosting fully so it's not leaking:thumb:

you'll hear a aignificant amount more noise with a CAIK and FMIC through the pipework Dan, especially as you're Twin Scroll. You should be hearing a lot more noise from 2000rpm onwards and DV noise should be a lot louder :thumb:

You would get more of a flutter, not a whistle.....you know where my money is... ;)

It's not twinscroll:thumb: he can't afford a jdm:D

Or a loud suction noise, then chatter when off throttle.
