hello
yes i am pretty sure,i have tried everything i could think of to discover the problem.i am sure thats where its coming from.its very bizzare ,you could discribe the sound as being like brake squeal.!!!!!.i tried diffrent lengths of induction piping aswell but didnt make a diffrence.it seems worse when u let the engine breath easyier,,i.e going from the stock air box to a mugen induction filter.any help?????

i would say its a squeal rather than a whistle but i am getting the same problem with the stock air box but it isnt as loud,,propably cos the filter is boxed,i have checked for any air leaks around the throttle body and intake manifold but nothing,,can you think of anything else i could try????

hello were trying to help you!!!!!!!!!
Maybe your describing it wrong or using the wrong words the first thing I think of when someone says there is squealing coming under the hood is a loose belt.
