Re: whistling noise from intake (B18B1-turbo)
do you have an intake manifold or intake? if the sizes are mismatched, or something like that, the disturbance of air flow across the difference causes the whistling, I hear if you get them matched up, it will stop it.

Mine does the same thing. It can get annoying though.

i have a home made 3" intake with a K&N filter, mine does the same thing, i thinks its b/c of the "shielding" thats on the filter, and i think its b/c of a couple folds getting bent. i don't really know, just a thought

Re: (RedLinin247)
its actually the air flowing past the valve on the throttle body..certain intakes just amplify the sound. it happens on alot of cars especially 5.0 mustangs and Honda motors.

Re: (J337_UNIT)
its because of the filter they use, i switched to an HKS filter and you cant really hear it anymore. but its funny because some people think my car is turboed
