Accelerator and brake pedal vibrating.

So I just installed a AEM cold air intake for my forte GT 2022 and sometimes I feel the pedals vibrate not to the point where you can hear it but enough to feel it If you get what I mean. Is this normal to the AEM user's out there? I do have my stock exhaust on there with a turbo muffler as well. Maybe that's it. Thanks in advance

UPDATE: SITUATION IS RESOLVED. INTAKE TUBE WAS RUBBING UP AGAINST THE BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR. PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT IT IS TIGHTLY SECURE AND NOT RUBBING UP AGAINST THE RESERVOIR SO YOU DON'T GET THAT FEELING OF VIBRATION ON YOUR BRAKE PEDAL. SAVING YOU THE HASSLE OF TRYING TO FIND THE ANSWER THROUGH THE THREAD.

shake the exhaust around with the exhaust tips and see if you hear it hitting the underside of the car anywhere.
I found the verdict of the problem. The intake tube was vibrating up against the brake roof fluid reservoir. I didn't securely tighten the tube.

Delete. You already found solution.

Had this same problem when I installed the AEM intake. Make sure the back hose is fully pushed in and tighten. The hose is hitting the brake fluid reservoir and sending the vibrations through and you feel it in the brake pedal.

Thanks for telling me. That was it. It's fixed now. I'm just trying to figure out how to delete this thread
