Default Whistling?

my car has been whistling for about a couple of months now and i cant stand it anymore. It only happens when give it gas between 0-45 once i hit highway speeds its either gone or i cant hear it. It sounds like its in my cabin so i thought it was my AC so i starting flipping switches still whistles. I checked to see if it was just the wind but its not. No idea WT*... is this whistle noise can anyone help me out?

Do you have an aftermarket intake? Most cars whistle when the throttle plate is at a certain angle. The plate is thin.

Do you still have the factory intake? If so, did you remove the airbox cover?

could be coming throught the audio system. If you have an amp or new radio. Turn the volume up or down as you here it. If it changes the volume of sound, you need an isolator on the power wire or you have a bad ground connection.
