[QUOTE=idkwhatimdoing;3106171]These units are pretty loud at idle, the Rotrex dev manual says you’ll get a shrill suction noise with an open element filter (such as the K&N one provided by JR). It’s normal. Mine sounds the same, but I didn’t hear whining in the video.

That's really reassuring to hear. It does whine, but it's not nearly as bad as some videos I've seen. And with the hood closed it's even less noticeable. I just got nervous. I really appreciate the feedback! Loving this car so much!

thanks!
