[s-cars] Whoosh Sound on Lift from Accelerator??

[brian hoeft]

Our cars divert particularly close to the airbox and if running well
otherwise, sounds acceptable to me. I dont need to have the accessories off
in order to hear mine, but I dont have the factory airbox either. Sounds a
bit like darth vader and makes me grin. If this is something you just
replaced, make sure everythings tight of course, but its probably
functioning sharper/more pronounced than before.
