Try to distinguish it from the normal intake whistle.

XVIPER - Try to distinguish it from the normal intake whistle.
I have a MY00 with 28k (bought used at 25k) in Tucson, Arizona (very dry hot desert) and was starting to get concerned about dried out and cracked vacuum lines because of this whistle sound. But, the car runs great.

Just installed cai and i have hissing on cold start up but goes away after a minute or so.No lines are crossed or kinked any ideas
The reason why the noise goes away after a minute or so is because it is associated with the secondary air injection system. This system only works after a cold start and shuts down when the intake manifold detects the correct temperature. I'm surprised that you can hear it now when you could not before the CAI. If you can hear it that well, I'm also surprised that you don't have a CEL. Are you leaving out any details?
