its an SRI
is more of a whistle or whine like turbo spool. good be a loose belt as well.. check ya belts.
It sounds like it could be your sound system, I believe if wires cross etc behind the head unit this can cause a whistling sound.
the whistling sound could be from your intake as mentioned.
here is a quick diagram of what causes mine to whistle
note my arrows are air flow.

I run a Spoon filter on my box, with the lid off and due to the plastic foam material it doesn't muffle the sound like the OEM paper style filter and I get a similar sound with part and full throttle. I've heard this is a trait of some of our plenums/throttle bodies.
If it's only changed sound recently I'd be checking for breaks or tears in the your filter or intake pipe.
Mugen ones whistle, thats just the design.
Mine used to be quiet - then started randomly whistleing..
Hope this helps?
lol
mine whistles at certain rpms
exhaust leak ?
its just the aftermarket intake, they whistle quite loud in neutral. Thats what happens when you remove the stock box.
