Roar

[MAGNUM]

I have noticed an intense roar from my intake while hwy driving. Seems like at low RPMs in town it is quiet. I am sure this is normal but I was wondering if anyone else has found a remedy? Maybe a snorkel?

more holes make it louder.

The noise is directly from the " throtle body " I just figured a snorkel would redirect the roar to wherever I plumbed it to.

Yes, adding a tube to the intake, like a normal vehicle will help quiet the roar.

Better yet, turn that ROAR into a loud WHISTLE!

Go to a wrecker and look for a plastic intake resonator off a civy 6.2. I got mine after noticing that several guys up here have them on their 6.2's. Makes a difference. Its # 10 on the pic. Mine isn't exactly as shown, there are probably a few styles out there but it fits the stock air cleaner opening . The other end I have zap-strapped to the corner of the front battery tray.

Thanks, that sounds like the best fix.

I used some aircraft scat hose and made a cold air-intake tube, ran it to the fender. She's not as loud. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/cucv/54524-what-have-you-done-your-cucv-today-lately-119.html See post #1187
