i hear a whistling noise and i aredy know its comming from the intake. but i cant seem to find were its exactly its comming from. does n e 1 know how much is it to repair this problem. it drives me nuts hearing that noise. everything on the car is stock tho. jus got it. btw trunk rattles n sunroof sounds like its gana crack every time i hit a rough bump.

 

I'll go easy on you since you're new. Search around. This is a very common question.

The way the stock intake is designed, it whistles at a certain throttle. If it's the same whistle, its nothing to be worried about.

 

it jus started happening outa no were. lol go ez on me? ok thanks dude. got n e pics of ur scion?

 

yea dude im not trying to sound like a @ss but most ppl
on here would tell u to search b4 u post, check the scion TC section i think, the owners lounge, about the roof soundidng like it gonna crack lol its normal sometimes i think its gonna shatter on me ur good dude congrats on ur new ride

 

It's like a text message gone horribly wrong.

As for the whistling, it'll go away once you get your turbo

 

Pics of my car are in my profile. (click on my username)

yeah, be glad you asked this in this section, alot of a holes on this site. haha
The whistling is normal, and yes, our cars rattle. alot.

 

lol, the tC section would have gone nuts

 

lol damn TC drivers

 

my car rattles and shakes ALOT more than the OP's and i'm not complaining, motor mount bushings + ETD = headache until you get used to it which isn't bad at all

 

COLDAIR

 

If your vehicle is stock. On the OEM air box.. there is a plastic piece that makes the sound of an intake. So it sounds...cool...but yea...thats it. I just kicked my oem Tc box in the garage yesterday hah

 

I have 2009 scion tc and I never had any intake whistle. I used to own a 2005 tc. What changed?

 

or the whistling with increase due to raw power! lol just get an cai and it would be a good whistle

 

ok so i installed a trd intake and whistling is louder. so i come to the conclusion that its prolly commin from the throttle body. i dont really wana ____ with that. so i guess in stuck wit it. btw i jus ordered weapon r header(WOOP!) for 446$ and raspy noise combined wit 13 extra hp n torque= who cares about whistling noise.

 

yeah, again, it's normal. You won't get rid of it.

 

the whistlign sound is normal, once an intake is installed it gets even louder, nothing to worry bout. and as far as the header goes ur lucky to see anywhere near 13whp. usually bolt ons for out cars arent the best of choices its not like owning a honda. typical bolt ons header/intake/exhaust you'll most likely dyno 160whp or less. btw where in queens are u?

 

lol, 13whp from a header. HA!

 

^^^^ seems totally possible

not.

 

im in the kew garden hills/flushing area.

n yes u guys r right i dont feel much a difference wit a trd intake n weapon r header from when it was stock. dam header was $446. this is rediculous!!!
