EC2 Ubuntu instance npm is not installing any package

I have an error installing any package, even if I run sudo npm i -g npm I get the same error:

npm ERR! Linux 4.15.0-1032-aws
npm ERR! argv "/usr/bin/node" "/usr/bin/npm" "i" "-g" "npm"
npm ERR! node v8.10.0
npm ERR! npm  v3.5.2
npm ERR! code ETIMEDOUT
npm ERR! errno ETIMEDOUT
npm ERR! syscall connect

npm ERR! network connect ETIMEDOUT 104.16.16.35:443
npm ERR! network This is most likely not a problem with npm itself
npm ERR! network and is related to network connectivity.
npm ERR! network In most cases you are behind a proxy or have bad network settings.
npm ERR! network
npm ERR! network If you are behind a proxy, please make sure that the
npm ERR! network 'proxy' config is set properly.  See: 'npm help config'

I don't know where to start for debugging, I thought I have a problem with my internet but I can ping google.com from my EC2 Instance, even when I ping 104.16.16.35 I get response packets.

EC2 Instance outbound rules: enter image description here

Curl response for curl -I 104.16.27.35:443

curl: (7) Failed to connect to 104.16.27.35 port 443: Connection timed out

npm downloads the packages it will install via https, so you should add port 443 to the outbound rules in your security group configuration.
