Weird sound after 6,000 rpm???
Hey,
Today I was driving to an 8 meet, as I was driving onto the highway in 3rd gear I accelerated passed 6,000 rpm and then this wierd noise accured. Sounds like a foil bag flapping very fast out the window. This happens in 2nd, and 3rd gear after I got to duplicated it a few times. I just put in a new K&N drop in filter a week ago.
Recent service:
K&N drop in filter.
Changed my spark plugs a little over a month and a half ago.
Also, drive short distances alot, if this helps.
I tried searching the forum for this problem, maybe I am looking for the wrong thing but if any one heard of this problem let me know.
Thanks,
Adam

I never had any ping or whatever. Im just kinda curious (too lazy to read the AP thread right now, tired from a whole day of partying)
Just make sure you use some brand name gas. Not your local el-cheapo discounted gas station.
MM = MazdaManiac - he is selling the AP RX-8 version at this time. he is a great help and if u buy it, you can ask him for certain maps. Turbo or not.

When you had the problem did you have any change in driving? Wasn't constantly, or random???

I think that is the sound mine has been making too. Sounds kind of like the engine has flem in its throat. It went away after I changed my oil and shifted from WalMart Premium gas to Shell Premium gas. I shouldn't have altered two things at once, but the problem went away. Problem came back yesteday. I bought gas at WalMart the day before - the first time I had done that since switching to Shell. I guess have to go back to buying the more expensive stuff.
