Default CAI Whistle

Ive just fitted my new CAI, it sounds very nice under hard acceleration , what annoys me though is when coasting and you lightly touch the throttle you get a whistling sound, it annoys me, it sounds like from the throttle body area, can this be silenced ??[&:]

nope, they all do it for the most part. Mine isn't too noticable form the inside, but people hear it when I hit the gas from the outside.
