Not sure if this is normal, but when i accelerate in the TJ VR-X it makes a hissing noise, like when you stick the foot down and the turbo kicks in, yet I dont have turbo :p

Just not sure if its an 'ok' noise or if it needs checking out :kb:

I doubt you would hear that on full throttle. It would need to literally run through the cabin to hear it.
