What is that whistling sound
#16
I began hearing this noise when as soon as i installed my MD 1/2 Copper iso-thermal spacer. Here's what I think, and what i did:
1). If you have the copper kit, you replace the gasket in the throttle body with the new copper gasket and connect the rubber tubes to this, but, there's still the old tubes coming of the throttle body that don't connect to anything. I *think* that there is where the whistle is coming from. I put electrical tape over the tubes that didn't connect to anything that did seem to quiet the whistle. Its not totally gone, but its significantly less.
2). The whistle will also come from the extra volume of air now being sucked in by the intake.
I don't know if #1 made sense to you, I prolly didn't explain it as well as i could, but its early, and i haven't had coffee yet
