Banks Ram-Air Intake Problems

I have the Banks Monster Exhaust and Intake and I like both, but the intake produces a real nasty vibration/drone at around 1800 RPM under load. When going up a 2% or greater grade on the Fwy and just rolling on the throttle without picking up much speed, it will suddenly emit this real annoying sound. From what I have found on the Net this is not normal. What could I do to resolve this? Any ideas?

are you tuned for the intake? you need a custom tune for an aftermarket intake for the new body trucks. otherwise you'll run lean and wont get the best results from the intake. plus it should quiet it down just a little bit. you'll never get rid of all the drone.
