Problem after Installing Cold Air Intake

I put in my CAI about a week ago and i have a weird noise in my engine now. it almost sounds like an exhaust leak or sort of a chugging but it only happen when in drive and when i get to 2500 to 3000 rmps. after about 3000 rpm it stops. when im in park and rev it it wont do it either. only while driving. i havnt had much time to check it out but i thought id ask on here first. any idea what this might be?
 


good guess on that i would have never figured that one out good job...lol

anyways is it just the sound coming from the cone that making it sound like a racekar?
 
yeah my car seems to drive fine just has a funny sound to it. and no codes or anything. and yeah its an 04 hah. but i dont think its coming from the cone. i may put my stock air intake in tomorrow to see if it makes a difference.
 


I have an 04 gt as well and i use to have the same problem when i installed my short ram. I have an slp intake set up. i was unsure what it was, but mine went away too. what intake set up are you running. custome,k&n?
 
Yeah it scares me too. but idk what to do about it, I mean everything seems fine. im just running a spectre cone. Its not a true cold air intake YET its a short ram but im working on it.
 


Probably guy your not used to hearing the internal clattering of the 3800...and you hear it A LOT more with an aftermarket intake vs. the very quiet factory airbox.
 
that could be it too. im pretty sure swapping out the stock air box for a cone filter isnt going to do much at all
