Default expansion valve ON MY 97

Hi Im new here and to honda's

Our 97 accord 2 dr 2.2 5 spd

thing is that the a/c blew ice cold for about an hour then would start blowing warm, so I evacuated the system and did a leakdown test all good,
ordered an a/c compressor package that came with the compressor, reciever dryer and expansion valve,
after I replaced all of the components the a/c woirks great now, but I am gettin a squealling coming from the expansion valve area,
I know it is a/c related as soon as I turn off the a/c, blower still going the sound goes away, it also goes away at idle but as soon as the motor comes off idle it will start to squeall,kinda like it is pushing to much threw the valve like a whisle, the a/c system keeps working after the hours of driving, so I fixed that part, but fel I did something wrong from the squealling sound we have now lol

thanks for any help

What are the high and low side readings? Also note the outside temp when you had the gauges on.
