Z-tube, Stillen CAI, and MREV+ here and I get the same short whistle when I blip the throttle. I just started noticing it last week (about a week after installing the MREV+). AT first I thought something was squeeking but it sounds cool to me now.

oh man the whistle is killing me... Something in the ztube or the increased air flow into the throttle body is causing the air to transition from laminar to turbulent and I suspect it could have some power robbing potential since turbulence at the TB would/could impede aspiration but maybe t would improve AF mixture or atomization

This is why I want to know if the weapo R folks are experiencing this. I am wondiong since the air is feed through two tubes is the laminar effect is being maintained.

could somone in the performance product development field chime in here?

I've had the same problem since I installed my UTR Gtube and intake....anybody with any solutions yet....it's pretty annoying.

For those of you who say it's a normal intake hiss...it's not, because I hear the hiss then @ ~4K, there's a high pitched whistle/squeak that will persist if I press on the gas pedal moderately. Goes away if I accelerate hard or very lightly...looking for a solution for quite awhile...
