Do you have the stock air box or a CAI/FWI? Sounds like either air or a possible vacuum leak. Make sure all the rubber ducting in the air intake - throttle body is properly connected and tight. Check all vacuum hose line connections to all emissions components to the engine, supercharger and brake booster.

You'll need to pull the cover off the supercharger. Vacuum lines are all over the engine. Vacuum lines feed the brake booster, evap. emissions purge valve, fuel pressure regulator, SC boost bypass, etc. The throttle body has the main vacuum lines feeding out. About all you can do is a visual inspection and maked sure the hoses are properly secured to each component and not cracked. Also check the air filter and make sure it's seated properly in the air box.

Re: Re: Cold Start Whistle GTP

Aren't you in the process of putting new plugs or wires in, etc? Also, you stated in another post that you had the supercharger coupler replaced so you should have new SC oil.
