The sound sjust started out of the blue, and it appears to be coming from my throttle body area. This is after I tightened up all the bolts to spec and tightened my intercooler hose clamps for good measure. It sound slike a chirping cricket and it does so at random intervals at idle. It also seems to occur when rpms rise a little witht he lopey idle. Its extremely loud, as my dad heard it when I was parked across the street.
 
my bov makes a little chirping from the idle at times the idle will bounce from 1500 to about 500 and i get a little swkeek at times from that tried looking in that area?
 
yeah it seems to come from the general area of the BOV and throttle body. it just started out of the blue after i tightened things up, go figure. i have lower nipple on the greddy S BOV plugged up, should that be vented to the atmos? The sounds does appear to be just at idle and speed up when the idle increases...Ill check if sound is there with the clutch in, it obviously does it in neutral with the clutch out.
