I'm assuming the vibration was under acceleration?

Was it a one time thing? Did it feel like the engine or the trans or just the whole car?

Were you driving over the rumble strip? j/k

There could be a lean condition from the intake altering the MAF readings and that mixed with the heat and humidity + running the car hard could have caused some knock.

Most people on here will say after getting an intake, you are going to need a tune.
