the whining noise is the supercharger you can hear its quite normal sounds great from the outside but does sound quite loud inside thats what i thought when i first heard mine.the noise was allways there but you couldn,t hear it because of the air box your now pulling air nearly directly to the supercharger. :thumbsup:

As 215 says, the charger makes that noise anyway, you just can't hear it with the stock set up.

Mine went in for a service today so I put the stock filter box on as I have some warranty issues.

It was strange driving a 'quiet' car again this morning :rolleyes:
