Default whistling sound

theres a whistle when i accelerate. it almost sounds like a bov but only longer. it would make someone think i had forced induction but i was wondering if anyone knew how to fix it. i have intake and its a lot more pronounced than the hiss of my intake sucking in air. thanks

I'd imagine it's just the intake "hissing" between 2.5-4k rpm's

yup. totally normal. you can hear this sound even when stock, and an intake only amplifies it.

I hear a whistling noise from the engine when I am driving on the highway above 65mph. When I step off the gas and just coasting, there is a faint whistling noise coming from the enigne. Does anyone experience this? Is it normal?

Thanks.
