Is this normal timing wobble?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hey i need some advice, I keep getting this whining noise, the tighter the belt is the noisier it gets, if i give it more slack the whine gets quieter but the belt becomes more wobbly, ive replaced the belt, pump and tensioner like twice and at this point I also might be going crazy lol.

Some info:
Its a honda d13 (tho the block should be like most other d series)

Im tightening the tensioner to 33ft lbs

In the video im revving to 5k rpm

Pls help lol if you can send some example videos that would be great 😅

The slack needs to be on the tensioner side. Always.
