emissions pump
BEING AN IDIOT I WAS TRYING TO JACK THE CAR UP FROM THE FRONT UNDER THE DRIVER SIDE HEADLIGHT AND I GUESS THERE WAS NOTHING THERE SO AFTER A LOT OF PRESSURE CAR CAME CRASHING DOWN ON THE JACK....MY PROBLEM NOW IS THE PUMP OR I THINK ITS THE EMIISSIONS PUMP COMES ON HELLA FREAKIN LOUD EVERYTIME I START THE CAR SOUNDS LIKE AN AIRPLANE OR SOMETHING CAN SOMEONE TELL ME WHAT THE PROBLEM IS OR HOW I CAN FIX THIS
you'll have to figure out exactly whats making the noise.
Once thats discovered you'll have to figure out why. Maybe its just something bent that needs to be bent back the other way or maybe its damaged altogether and neeeds replaced.
Just pull the front bumper and see whats up with that airpmp

2. Post pics of the carnage
you might have knocked a hose loose or cut a hose, thus rushing air creating noise. It could be anything, you should remove the bumper and have a good inspection. Mine makes a slight wooshing turbo like sound on start up but it isn't overly loud. You must have knocked something loose.

its def the air pump.... I had the same thing for awhile after I installed my turbo kit( I was too lazy to take it out right away lol) I just didnt have the hose hooked up to the intake anymore.
Its the same thing. The air, and or emissions pump is for cold starts. If I remember right it warms the catalytic converter up for easier cold starts, if you have a test pipe, you dont need the pump. I just bought a new one b/c mine went bad. I have a test pipe but there is no way around the CEL. So you have to get a new one if you dont want a CEL.
