Default Belt sqeak when pedal depressed

Hey Guys... just looking for some additional info here.

It seems that my tc has a slight "belt like" squeaking with my gas pedal depressed about 1 inch (when im accellerating)

I can push it further, and it will go away, or i can let up a bit, and it will go away...

Has anybody else seen / heard that? What could it be ?? It sounds like it's coming from the driver's side, which is odd because the drive belt appears to be on the passenger side.

it's actually your air intake pulling air in when the throttle blade is barely open.

it's normal and designed to make the noise... cus it's cool ;)
don't get a cold air intake if you don't like it because it will amplify the sound.

Ha...

I actually already just put on a K&N cold air intake. And it did become louder.

It's cool though, just wanted to make sure it was normal, not something wrong.
