Is it rubbing up against the intercooler where it's pressing against it?

You could try reclamping the clamps. In one of the pics, it looks like a clamp is a bit too far onto the hose. I'm not quite sure

Did you take one of the elbows off to make it easier to install? That's what it says to do in the instructions. I didn't need to cut mine. I left one a little loose until it looked right, then tightened the bolts on the elbow.

The fun part comes when you go to put it back on This thing really made spool up noticably smoother.
