Cable ties fixed that. The Monty was a quality build, this has been a car on a budget build.

My suggestion is either get used to it as replacement will only solve it temporarily or buy enough go fast bits to drown out the sound.

Some interesting pics up. I'll have to post mine soon. My question is tho why do alot of people run an open pod? Doesn't that suck in heaps of hot air? The boxed pods look really smart. Would there b any gain between a pod and a quality panel filter?
