Intake flutter noise...help pls

I have the HKS suction kit and tonight when I was cruisin in 5th I was getting a "flutter" sound from the intake. It would happen when I was boosting about 2-5 psi and let off the gas.
Is this normal or do I have something loose???

stock one....
I normally get a wooshing after high boost. I like that sound. But just noticed the flutter sound. Maybe the solution is to boost more than 5psi all the time

are you getting that when you let off the throttle? Because that's normal.

Mine does the same thing, I wouldnt worry about it. It does the same thing w/ the stock air box, but you just cant hear it. All it is the stock dv fluttering because the low boost can barely open the valve.

The fluttering sound is completely normal.

The HKS Racing Suction Intake has the wonderful ability to amplify stock, ambient noise, making a stock turbo and BOV much louder than normal. Enjoy the intimidating factor of a loud turbo. It's just plain sick how loud it is!!!
