Problems with MIAC/ Sand In A Blender sound. Tried everything.
Hello, I've been lurking the forum for a while, searching for possible solutions. I've tried google and the search function to no avail.
Heres a little background on my engine and mods:
Had my engine rebuilt by pettit racing about a month ago
Pettit/milltek exhaust
Racing beat dual resonated mid pipe
Racing beat lightweight flywheel
New belts
Things I have done to try to correct the problem:
Installed the heater hose orifice, and throttle body by pass mod.
I always use 93 octane
Always red line once a day
The sound is basically a sand in a blender type sound coming from the glovebox/dash area and starts at 3k rpm all the way through the rev range. Any thoughts or ideas on how i may get rid of this annoying noise? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Maybe it has something to do with "burping" the cooling system to get the bubbles out? I havn't spoken with Cam at pettit yet I will bring it up next time I go to his shop to make adjustments and what not.
Would flushing the coolant do anything to help?
Also I should mention that when doing the throttle body byspass mod I did the "drop in a sheet rock screw" method. Thanks again guys!
