It's normal for aftermarket intakes.

it never whistle before I put turbo on it, then when I took turbo off thats when it started making the noise. it still makes the noise when i take the intake off. I know what you guys are talking about with the intake, but this noise is about ten times louder than that. could turbo have messed up my throttle body? I ran 10lbs boost

I would take off your TB check the TB itself and check intake mani as well.

spray intake cleaner around the mating surfaces and other vaccum hoses to see if your motor bogs when you do.
