Default Possible air leaking from intercooler hose

Well. I am hearing a  elouder than normal” air flow noise recently. It only happens when I step on the gas (accelerate). I didn‼sup>TM</sup>t see any fault codes yet. Perhaps, there might be a small rupture somewhere along the hose but not big enough to cause fault codes, could that be possible? Need advise! Thanks.

Default Please let me know what you find -I have the same noise.

exactly the same and it's very annoying with a CVT that maintains the revs. I made a plug for the 2" dia air hose from the filter box to plug it then tapped into the manifold to input air pressure. Only found a slight leak at the connector on top behind the manifold - no obvious whistling leak like I thought I might find. I think I input about 15 psi but the gage on my compressor is not very readable. I was nervous about putting in too much...

Default check ...

the small elbow shaped hose (1/2" dia) connect at the back of the intake manifold. Mine (and others) was found to be split at the seam. It throw no codes also.
