I like the whistling noise, mine seems to do it at half throttle accelleration and above right before it shifts. Used to hear a similar noise from the cop cars in "chase" shows like Smokey and the Bandit or Dukes of Hazzard.

Yea mine makes the same sound. I think it has something to do with the air since our engine are big and suck in lots of air. I think its just all the air from the intake

I wouldnt worry, mine does it because it is sucking in cold air. I dont really hear it but when I got the cruise set and when I am driving slower. It is just the air rushing over the intake walls. I love it, if I got a CAI then I would really be able to hear it

I notice a whistling sound when I am cruising on the highway, and let off the accelerator, the whistling starts at around 50mph all the way down to 35mph. But it only does it while decellerating. don't know what it is but it never really bothered me.

It does it without the air conditioner on. I rarely use the AC unless it's a hot summer day. I usually go with the windows down.
