stupid question for stillen intake/franken-stillen combo whistle noise?

ok so a bunch of videos ive seen there are max's with intakes that whistle like a turbo when at wot...im wondering if thats because of a stillen style intake or any jwt or anything that have the velocity stack? because i have the franken midpipe and regular cone filter now and mine makes that turboish noise at like 1/4 throttle with o/d off but at WOT i dont have the noise and the noise im talking about can be heard in this vid... http://www.customenterprise.com/TEST...os/MaxRace.mpg just wondering why his car soudns like that? and if my intake sound would change to that if i had the hybrid franken/stillen combo insted of regular franken? and no im not trying to be a ricer wanting fake turbo noise if i wanted that id go buy one of those bov simulator things from ebay lol

the wide open throttle whistle is the y pipe, not the intake. I thought my car never did either until i heard it WOT from the outside of the car.

There is no way to get rid of the whistle sound....it's there FOREVER.




Unless you go back to stock.
