whining I have the answer

It is the idler pully that came in the stillen kit.

I posted about this complaint yesterday.

http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.phtml?threadid=3310

But there are a few complaints about it.
The shop that will be installing mine told me about it from a car that they installed the kit in. The only time it seems to be there is while the AC is on (thus causing additional strain) Of course it could be the same whine that my Roomates Supercharger on his 4runner has. Boosted air flowing throgh the system. Some superchargers do just whine.
