whistling noise by intake

when im going into a stop i hear a whistleing noise on the drivers side tire..i stuck my head out and it sounds like its coming from my engine..dunno if its from my cold air intake or what..when i was parked i told my friend to press the gas a little and when he did u can hear the noise whistle and i know it wasnt the filter cause it was about above the tire where i could here it but inside the engine bay..it sounded louder when i was going about 15mph and pressing the brakes thats where i would hear it most....do u all think i have a leak in my ypipe or cai?...please help thanks

hmm, well i know an intake will whistle, only during low RPMs. However pressing your brakes would have no effect on your Ypipe or CAI. Just stand next to your hood while your car is idling, you should be able to hear a sucking of air in sound by your CAI, my bet its that, and your fine...
