Hey guys,
For starters, just saying hey as this is my first post. Secondly, I just installed an AFE Stage 2 Cold Air Intake on my 2003 GT. This was the first time I have ever done any work on a car. I think it went ok. Took me about an hour or so and the intake sounds great when accelerating, but when I decelerate quickly there is this sputtering or fluffing noise. I have only driven around for probably 15 minutes, so I don't know if it is still just getting broken in, I messed something up, or it's supposed to be like that. Thoughts? Thanks! |

When I am accelerating fairly hard and then let off the gas I think I get that "Darth Vader breathing" sound you are talking about. Which is fine with me, but after that there sometimes is a fluttering sound. Is this also normal??

Hahaha, yes that would be perfect way to describe it. Nice use of bold and caps.

Its called turbo flutter... It is the reversal of pressure from boost to vac over the compressor wheel. Its just louder now, it happened before you just couldn't hear it
Its normal Josh

Do you have any pics of the intake either before or after install? Just curious if this intake just bolts to the stock ttab pipe or replacess it with a little less restrictive one.

After - After picture by sCrod3s - Photobucket The kit replaced the air filter, box, a couple hoses, and the intake tube all the way to the turbo inlet. So, I have the Mopar blow off plate that just arrived at my door. I'm assuming this will have an affect on the turbo flutter??? |
