Ok, so quick update, we installed the JHM intake manifold, spacers and Aux radiator and oil cooler over the weekend. Its running now. However i have a whine that is associated with my RPM’s. If i rev the car up the whine goes with it.
You cant really hear it from outside. You only hear it in the cabin OR if you put your head down by the passenger front wheel area. When driving its very noticeable when im coasting/decelerating from speed. It actually sounds like a failing pump of some sort, BUT i cant figure out where or what it would be. Again if your outside you dont hear it. Its coming from the Aux radiator area that i removed. I initially thought it was the new oil cooler and the sound of the oil circulating but JHM says it doesnt make noise.
The car seems to be running fine (other than my previous issue of 02 sensor and rough idle when cold). My buddy thinks it could have been vibrations from the thermostat hitting the new JHM bracket. We put some rubber between the two (couldnt start the car because we broke the upper coolant hose last night so i have to replace it.
Im leaving for QDM tomorrow morning so if its not the vibrations from the thermostat and bracket i want to know what i should look at before leaving. ill try and upload a video in a bit.
