![]() Is this whistling caused by air passing the plate??

![]() Mine too......I was kind of nervous when I first heard it, but I've gotte used to it. It sounds kind of cool, but people think I've got a blower (and that part of it's not too cool - especially since I don't have 1 yet).

![]() yes its caused by air passing the small idle hole in the plate, BBK drills them at an angle and thats what causes it, ever blow on the mouth of a beer bottle at an angle and get a whistle? same thing

![]() Get the 30lb sampling tube for your meter. The Vortech meter is actually made by C&L Performance. They sell the tubes for around 26 dollars and charge like a dollar to ship it.

![]() With the confusion of my computer not knowing what size injectors I am using, is it worth my time to keep messing with my Adjustable fuel regulator until i get my new mass air meter calibrated for 30lb injectors??
