Alta CAI Installation

Ok I just got done with installing my Alta CAI and it was pretty easy . the one part that I was unsure of is the Alta hose it was easy to install but when I give it gas I hear what seems to be the throttle body open and closing so I am wondering if the Alta hose is on all the way.

Is that sound normal? Besides that it sounds awesome.

Yes the hose is on all the way if there is a good seal to the Throttle Body and the airbox. You will hear tons of supercharger whine and the TB opening and closing. Isn't it great?!!
