AGS Wistles at idle??

To all the AGS owners out there:
Is the wistling sound normal when idling, or do I have a vacuum leak. I'm not sure if I heard this sound right after the installation, but I think it was not present. But once I step on the throttle, the wistle dies out and is replaced by a sucking sound. The sound is even audible for half a second after I turn the engine off. And by the way, I do not have any lights lit on the dash.

Hi john.....

If you bought the unit directly from us, you would have been told that
RTV is necessary to seal the Green SC gasket to the AGS tube.

We will have the new AGS V.2 tube, (comming soon) and will offer a free
uppgrade if the unit was bought new from us, or one of our distributors.

Please call us with any questions.

Peter,
Yep, I bought it directly from you, Check my location. I'm waiting on that new tube! I did RTV the gasket to the AGS tube, I am just worried that it may have developed a leak over time. What do you think that sound is? It is a high pitch wistle that's audible inside the car. Thanks!

John
