Help whats this sound!!??
This sound happens once the engine has been shut off for about 45 min to an hour and when the engine is some what warm. then after about a min or so it stops making the sound on its own. doesnt matter if a/c or heater is on/off. please help if you can!

Looks like valvetrain not having enough lubrication at start up after sitting for awhile....
What oil are you using? weight?
I can hear it loud and clear.

My car used to make that sound! People said it sounds like a spaceship. It's probably related to the AIR pump. Just rip that **** out and it'll go away. and how are you making 400hp with just bolt ons?

Unplug the pump and see if it still makes the noise. It can be reached via the access hatch under the car in the front driver side. 2 bolts hold the access hatch closed. Just know the SES will turn on if you leave it unplugged... but it wont hurt anything.

its the SLP 400hp package on the car so the engine is rated at 400 not rwhp but im going to go with a 222/226 cam and the guys at EPS says i should have aroung 400 to 410rwhp after the swap so in about a month or two after i order and install il have it tuned on the dyno and post up the print out of the dyno..
