is your throttle body a BBK? if so thats probably your whistle. Mine does it too it kinda sounds like a blow off valve when i shift gears. you should put a 73 or 75 mm MAF on your car so it wont restrict as much. i may have a 73mm C&L calibrated for 19lbs/hr injectors for sell soon if you're interested.
