Wierd noise and good vac. lines

I was wondering if anyone could tell me what the funny noise is that I get between 10 and 0 PSI of vacuum. It is kind of a growling sound and it is coming out of the rubber line off of the back of the UIM. I no longer have the stock airbox which is where it originally went I believe. Can anyone tell me if this is normal? Or, if it is, is it happening at the appropriate time?

Also, I was wondering if anyone can tell me a good place to buy a kit to replace all of my vac. lines?

If your noise is a groaning or "mooing" noise, and you have an aftermarket intake, it may be the caused by the air pump if you don't have a restrictor in the hose. Mine makes this noise after the Apexi intake was installed. The person I purchased it from forgot to give me, and still cannot find, the part.

The rx7store.net (click on top left banner) carries the Hose Techniques silicone hose replacement kits!!

Yeah, it's either your intake or an intercooler coupling/hose is loose. Take a quick peek.........
