is your air filter stainless steal or cotton if stainless could be the air sucking through the stainless mesh
any vacume pipes split or loose maybe?
dumpvalve leaking or dv gasket leaking?
air filter rubbing in intercooler pipe?

the air filter is definatly rubbing the FMIC pipe & my air cone has a metal meshing aswell. i think ill make a braket at work to pull the cone down abit altho i dont think ill be able to do this once the metal air intake pipe is fitted. we'll see

thanks for advice
