My injen cai intake on my g35 whistled so loud people thought it was a turbo ... I just took the whole thing off and re-installed it and the whistle was gone. Its just a very small leak where air is sucking in and causing a whistle... start by removing and re attaching the clamps in the engine bay and carefully remove and make sure the maf sensors are sitting right. If that doesnt work, off with the bumper! and check the filters and how they are clamped on.

My G3 makes a whooshing noise, but I can only hear it when I stand in front of the car... it's drowned out by the exhaust otherwise. Almost makes me wish I had them installed at different times, so I'd know what the intakes sound like by themselves. Oh well.

Ha! No way, man. Too many rednecks in my area flicking their still-lit cigarette butts out their windows. And then there are all the disgusting people who randomly spit out their windows. I had an S2000 some years ago and some a-hole flicked a lit cigarette butt right into my car while I had the top down. So given these wonderful experiences, I tend to always drive with my windows up.
