Default Squeal/Whistle

I have a 2013 GT. Whenever I am cruising at a constant speed and start to accelerate a little bit I am hearing a squealing sound coming from the driver side door area. When I let off the gas the noise stops. If I get heavy on the throttle there is no squeal, just with very light acceleration. I have a Steeda CAI, could this be causing the noise? It is very annoying. Ideas?

Switch back to the stock air box and tune and see if it stops. Then you'll know.

Did you ever get this resolved?

Well did you switch back to the stock air box to see if the sound was gone? I am 99% sure that it is the steeda intake and it just part of the setup. I wouldn't sweat it.

I bought the car with the Steeda on it so don't have the original airbox to try. I may try to run down a pre filter to see if that helps.
