I just installed some cheap 'ole short ram on my del sol (d16z6) and, the first thing i noticed was when it was at idle it made a whine. The intake tube wasn't really built right so the crank case tube is still pluged in put down at the bottom right next to the valve cover it is kinda kinked. Why does it make a whine nosie? It does it even when i'm driving but let off the gas, should i not worry about this?

I have no idea what you just said.

The whine is most likely the intake.

I have a 1992 SI HB with the d16z6 and I just put on a ractive short ram intake and it whines loud at idle and the line is kind of kinked to , do you hear any valve train sounds at all?? The whine is normal because hondas suck in alot of air for a 1.6L and the intakes made to sound like that.
Does it sound good when you rev it up in neutral?? or better when you are driving like in 2nd or 3rd??

well i don't know if i would call it a whine it's kinda like a squeak or squeal, if it is just the air getting sucked in it sounds realy strange. It sounds good when i rev it up in netural. Ok so i guess that it is normal .
