I'm not a newbie i swear, haha
Can someone technically and in detail explain to me about how the intake and throttle body works? ..i ask this because I have installed 64 mm bored TB and b18c5 IM with an AEM CAI...when I installed the bored TB....my CAI has been making sounds at idle. If anyone took the hollow AEM CAI tube and tapped it with their fingers like their playing a piano, it makes consecutive hollow echoing sounds, thats what i'm hearing from my CAI. My only best theory is that since the TB is bored 64 mm theres extra/excessive air hovering around inside the intake causing it to make the sounds I described. I checked their air filter and its on tight, intake on tight on the tb, hose and sensor on secure...so no air is leaking out. Thats my best theory because when i rev the car...it drops to 1.1 rpm then when it drops to normal 700-800 rpms it makes the sound as the needle descends. So it makes the sounds when it drops from 1.1-1.3 rpm -> 700-800 rpm AND when i'm at idle. Sorry for the long post

I uninstalled the TB and inspected it, Butterfly is good and doesn't stick, i even wd-40 it to be safe, I checked the TPS sensor and it has right voltage and all the hoses of that TB is on tight...and the throttle cable isn't an issue cause i loosen it back to stock settings
