Loud Whistle from engne

Postby Vontisch » Wed Sep 02, 2015 11:46 am

Hey guys,

I have a loud whistle coming from the engine bay under hard acceleration (normally at the 3500rpm range). It is not noticeable with daily driving. I feel that it is a split vacuum hose but I have no idea what to look for. Has anyone else had this issue?

It is a MY08 GT-B 6 speed all factory specification.

All feedback is appreciated.

check throttle body hose...probably the donut gaskets on the ends has slipped...just remove them completely.

Anybody know if I can pick one of these up in Adelaide this weekend? I would rather not wait any longer as I am heading to Melbourne next weekend.

Thanks Jack. I am assuming this came from you? Kobe Motorsport I fitted this over the weekend and was a little tedious to say the least but I will post some pics on how to install it.
