okay i just got my car back from honda yesterday with a new clutch master cylinder and they fixed the rattle in my sunroof, now i have a new problem.

when i am in 3rd, 4th, or 5th gear and push the throttle a little more then halfway down my car sounds very deep, a lot different then before. it almost sounds as if i have an aftermarket exhaust (im all stock by the way) now i dunno if my dealer messed something up when replacing my cmc or whats going on but any insight on what might be wrong or how i might fix it would really be great. Thanks in advance....

Is this in low rpm range, if so it sounds like the hose coming from the inlet of the airbox is removed or disconnected. Thats about all I can think of.

see if u can get under and around the car to check the hoses, clamps etc that they're all fastened correctly

Yes, because the clutch master cylinder lives in that area, right near the fuse box and brake fluid reservoir.

ok i checked this all out, but someone mentioned about it happening in the low RPM's like i said its when i put the throttle more then halfway to the floor, and it is not very low rpm's, i tryed to look at the airbox and nothing seemed loose.....damn this is annoying.....
