Wierd noise from intake area??

Has anyone had a weird squeeling noise come from the engine bay after removing the intake from there car?? When I mash the gas pedal it squeels like a stuck hog. Maybe an air leak between the intake and throttle body? Its not the tightest fit in the whole world. I tried to order a new rubber gasket from the dealer and ended up with an O-ring

I think our cars have something called a "supercharger"

Someone correct me if I'm wrong lol.

Ya, it could very well be a air leak, since it happened right after you removed intake. just recheck breather hoses and lines, etc around where you were.

Do C32's really have superchargers? Thanks for shedding the light upon us, darkxerox,

I pulled the intake off and took it for a spin and sure enough the noise is still there. I looked around for any loose hoses or anything of that nature and didnt come up with any. It's driving me nuts!! It's louder than the supercharger even with the new intake mod from code3. If I ease into the throttle its fine but if I am aggresive it squeels like crazy until just about redline.

Check the belt, it could be making the noise. or a pulley bearing.

I ordered one a couple weeks ago! I figured since I have 80k it wouldn't hurt to change it.
