i recently installed a 70mm bbk tb on my stock 94gt conv. Whenever i give it throttle it squeals and whistles for about 3 seconds then stops when i let off. i remember hearing that some people had this problem. is there any fix for this or should i put my stocker back on? the noise makes the car sound like junk. btw i installed new gasket to upper plenum and tb.

Pull it back off and check the blade spacing

I thought the BBK TB's were notorious for their whistle.
