Default 05/06 intake whistles. 07 doesnt???

hey everyone,

I have an 07 Injen CAI, and i was terribly disappointed when i listened to it and realized that it doesnt whistle nearly as much as my 05 Injen intake did. This was a big reason why i got the intake. The only noticeable differences are the MAF sensor and the filter size. I know the whistle did not come from the MAF, so my only other thought is that it was coming from the air filter.

The 05/06 air filter is much larger than the 07 filter. I was wondering if anybody knew the size of the 05/06 filter. They should both technically fit on correctly. The piping size didnt change.

So yea, if anyone knows the size of the 05/06 Injen intake filter, i would greatly appreciate it. thanks a lot

Why would you WANT it to whistle? That was one thing I couldnt stand about my Civic CAI.

people, this thread isnt about me wanting it to whistle. Wether or not i want it to whistle, i was looking for the older air filter, but it turns out as long as you get an air filter with a 3inch diameter you will be fine. I actually just switched my filter out and it does whistle.

thanks for all the help.
