Ported Throttle Body Questions..making Squealing noise
I have a ported TB by Buschur and a VSR IM by AMS and everytime I give the car gas it makes a squealing noise. and I asked a mechanic friend of mine and he said its probably air. and I was thinking it might be from my throttle body since it ONLY does it when I accelerate. my queation is: is this a normal thing with a ported throttle Body or is my throttlebody leaking??? I put my had around the part of the TB that attaches to thei IM and when I open the throttle plate I don't feel any air leaking from anywhere.
is this normal with a ported throttle body???
please help my tund date is Wednesday and I need this fixed before then

The sound you are hearing, is indeed Air passing by. Although it can be generated a few different ways. Chances are more so at partial throttle than full.
First, is the gasket the correct size? Is the IM port matched to the TB? Loose vacuum hose? CEL on? Boost leak?
Typically, big TBs will squeal slightly when at partial throttle, as much more air is moving through the TB than before.

But I'm thinking it might be where I have a stock gasket that holds the TB to the IM or just a regular ported TB sound
