At the moment your car can't compensate for the added flow. Once you tune the car will be happy. If you're going to HB Saturday I'll be able to talk to you more about it there and answer any questions you might have.
That's very nice of you man. Thanks a lot!! I kind of like the shhh sound as well hahaha little version of super charger lol

Kverdina, what kind of tune did you get? I know you told me at the Malibu canyon run but I forgot.

Thinking about getting a Technosquare tune.....

Hissing is definately normal. Oter than that as said before a tune would definately set you up. You will notice a slight loss in the very low end but it should be more than made up for in the mid-high range at around 3000+rpm.

I've got an UPREV dyno tune by SpecialtyZ, and Travis has Hypertech. I'm happy with my tune and features of the Osiris software.

Maybe you should try put technosquare Danny to be different cause I don't know much about it. If anyone has questions about UPREV though I'd be a good person to ask.

It reminds me of a blow off valve on a turbo.

I scheduled my tune about 3 weeks after installing my exhaust. Tony at FI even told me it's important to drive easy on your exhaust the first couple days cause break in is crucial on the life of the exhaust.

I remeber before the tune I would punch the gas and it felt slow as $h!t. Lol

Did you reset the ECU? Let it learn the HFCs for a few days.
