Intake hiss

So I finally installed the Apexi WSII this weekend (and the AEM alternator pulley). Since the wife was yelling, I jumped in the car to rush home and didn't get the radio code out of the glove box. At about mid-throttle there is subtle a hiss that sounds like it's from the front which I am assuming is the intake (AEM SRI). Has this hiss always been there I just didn't hear it because I don't drive around without the radio on, or is it new due to the added exhaust?

bangemsmurf has a little shameless behaviour in the past
i got the sam hiss when i put my intake on and i heard it even louder when i added a throttle body spacer plus the intake together it almost sounds like a turbo buildin up pressure on the blow off valve but it shouldnt be nothin to worry bout ive driven mine with that noise to miami and back and everything still running fine on my 05 civic

i got a few extra bolts I think if you want for a few bucks I'll send em.

To the guy with the tb spacer, which intake do you have and does it clear the hood? Feel any gains with it?
