What kind of filter is it? Sure it isn't just the noise the air makes passing through it?

its not the turbo oviously then.
Its not a belt or nothing may sound stupid i suppose.
Or maybe something is rubbing somewhere
Or what i thing it really could be is a IC pipe loose

hi spoonz tried all them. had all new belts ect. ic pipe all tight.its actually coming from the intake.coming through the filter.so if i took off the airfilter the noise would come from the turbo.. i even took off the efi pipe..its a strange intke noise when u blip the throttle.abit like a whislte intake noise. BUT NOT NORMAL INTAKE NOISE.

no dave.cars stood still i can give it the tiniest blip and u can hear from the airfilter.u would think that somthing is not connected up properly? but obviously it is. cause all my car was setup at the time. and it did it then.or maybe somthing popped off.but ive checked everything. starting to piss me off now
 
Mate think a video of the car making the noise would be handy to help diagnose the problem. My car makes quite a harsh noise from the filter during acceleration (kinda like a loud sucking noise) but thought that was normal. I have a HKS Mushroom filter, whats yours??

Video is worth a try as it seems to be quite hard to explain. Did it always make this noise with the HKS filter on?? My car dont sound normal either, it makes a very loud sucking noise from filter then have a flutter valve which makes it all sound amazing.

You can get chatter noise by reving the engine even slightly. The noise will come back through the airfilter.

Put your ear by the filter and get somebody to rev the car if a flutter type noise comes from the air filter then that is what the noise is.
