do you have a shortram intake of any kind? or cold air? AEM...ebay something etc... Those tend to create some whistling type noises.

either your car is supercharged, you have a CAI, or you have a small leak in your exhaust/intake

Some Intake Manifold whistle, and High Flow Fuel Pumps make a high tone as well.
