Odd Noise

[ForumBlue]

Just heard this last night and haven't even looked yet but figured I'd ask so maybe I will know what to look for.
When excelerating hard (like fwy onramps) I hear a noise that sounds like if you were to blow high pressure air over a piece of paper. Thats the best way I can explain it.
Any ideas what it might be?
Thanks.
Jamie

Youve got an IC boot leaking.

Wow, that was fast. I figured it was something like that. I just didn't want to search for it if I didn't have to.

Thanks a lot.

If my not so photographic memory serves my correctly, Thi should be a pretty easy fix? Any tips?

Make sure you dont have oil in the area of the IC tube connections, Ive also heard that hairspray works well for an adhesion agent.

The hump hose conversion is a good alternative too.

Well the "Odd Noise" has been identified. After remove the IC booots and finding nothing wrong. It turns out my boost gauge is rattling when I excelerate. Since the IC boots weren't the prob. I started listening a little closer and realized it was inside the cab. I reached up and grbbed the boost gauge and sure enough when I excelerated it was vibrating in my hand.

DOH! At least it was an easy fix...

My Isspro gauge does that too. It drives me nuts so I am looking into different brands.

My ISSPRO boost gauge ticks as well. I just live with it.

I've got an ISSPRO boost gauge but it's rather quiet. They pyro, OTOH, makes a very high-pitched whining noise from the amplifier box but most of the time I can't hear it.
