PUt in a custom intake pipe all the way to the TB, lose the accordian tube, and shield it with a commercial or custom CAI or heat shield. Relocate the computer.

Many members here have overcome this, myself included, but I didn't have to relocate my computer

You need to fab a new pcm bracket, plexi glass or aluminum work well.

The Thrasher CAI will work with minor modifications.

I've got a PCM "relocation" in the works. There will be pics. Too bad I'm trying to get it done at work, new product launch and all.

I will only sound real loud and hissy when it'* warming up. It quiets down after a few minutes, then there'* that sweet whine that'* music to most peoples ears.
