Default whistling noise from the engine

i just was on my way home from dropping something off and i noticed when i left and on my way back whenever i get kinda on it the engine will start to make a whistle noise and the hard i get on it or the higher in the rpms i take it the louder the whistle is, it sounds like a turbo spooling but its not haha i just have a stock d16z6 with the stock intake and a aem filter cause my stock filter was dirty and i had to pay insurance and a payment so i stuck on this aem one any thing to do with the whistle noise let me know what you guys think it may be. kinda annoying.

Could be what I've got, one of the bearings on the alternator is binding slightly and making a high pitched whine which increases in pitch as the car is revved. Maybe worth checking out
