Default Hearing intake sound from inside the car

Hi everyone. I can hear the sucking of my intake from inside the car. This only started after I changed the windshield. I disconnected the HVAC line from the intake manifold to confirm no leaks inside the dashboard, but I still hear it.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Did you take the intake off the front of the engine might have not seated the bottom.

check the sealer for the windshield you may have a spot that has not sealed properly, this allows engine noise to enter the car. Hope this helps.

I have been reading online that the cheapo windshields do not have the sound deadeners in them like the oem has. I guess that's what the problem is. The booster is not leaking and the windshield was sealed properly.
