That's a normal sound for the 10" (and slightly quieter on the 14")...that's
the air sucking by the poorly designed Throttle Body venturis. Get a
Quick-D or Gen-II to get rid of that sound....or, get the TB "fixed" by one
of the "DML recommended" shops - Magnum Performance, F&B, or Quick-D (Tony).

Subject: DML: FABM and whistle/hiss
I just tried to install a fabm filter in my '99 dak.
It has a hiss--especially when the engine is loaded
or the ac comes on--that I think is either from the
gasket or the breather attachment. I used the mr.
gasket 9791 10" filter box with a k&n 10x2.75"
filter. It sat real high against the gasket that
mates with the hood on the back firewall. I tried
lowering it by 1/2" by cutting the bottom of the
filter hat and filing it level(it fits well now), but
the hiss is still there. Any suggestions--btw, i
have a 99' cc v6, if that helps.
