AEM Intake Weird Sounds

Question is there anyone out there that has a AEM Cold Air intake on there RX8?
The Reason I am asking this is because when I put the Intake on and started driving it, at about 4000 RPM's I started hearing a really loud noise almost like it was an exhaust that had been put on. Only Problem is that I don't have an exhaust. It sounds also like a loud sucking noise.

If anyone else has experienced this or knows if I did something wrong please let me know

Thanks
