Default rattling at high rpms

Hi everyone, I'm new to this but I just installed an injen CAI and when I get into the really high rpms it has a quick rattle in the rear it seems. Also my brake light will turn on if I really get onto it. Any ideas or solutions?

I don't know why a cai install would cause a rattle in the rear of the car, but you're low on brake fluid.

I believe you posted i the wrong section,

But check your clamps holding the intakes together...

Air could be seeping out and making noise?

Other then that, after market intakes make noise in higher RPMS
