Weird intake sound off throttle

Hey guys, 

 

I did a search and couldn't find anything. 

 

Just installed a turbo side intake on my FG F6 auto and when I lift off the throttle slowly there's a weird suction sound from the intake for a couple of seconds (totally different sound to the sound on throttle or from the blow off valve). It's happened with the standard bypass valve plumbed back or vented to air. And it's happening with various settings on the new GFB Respons BOV. 

 

I guess I'm not sure if it's normal or not. Any thoughts? 

 

Cheers!

That's a pretty big change to the intake - have you tuned it/had it tuned of did you just swap to the turbo side?

 

Maybe just hearing things happening from the turbo that you were never hearing before (muffled by the rest of the intake)?

The turbo side opens up a lot of noises that weren't there before - the system over the other side muffles a hell of a lot of stuff.

 

Would be really cautious and investigate whether you need a tune or now - the FG computers aren't really smart - they don't deal with changes really well.
