no i dont think anyone's actually found a solution from it...i know exactly what you guys are talking about too...my noise actually increased after installing a midpipe....same with my friend's 8...its likely a gasket leak but i've tried several different things to completely seal it but seems that it just keeps finding an opening....

 

anyone have any ideas?

 

Just so everyone can compare, does it sound like this:

I get that high pitched sound - and it comes from the intake (can be verified by placing a towel over the intake and the sound stops). I had that noise before the turbo too (with the revi intake)

 

haha..you sure your not being sarcastic with the BOV?!

maybe its just the poor sound quality but i heard nothing but the BOV

 

the sound quality is fine. Watch from 18 to 28 seconds. You'll hear the whistle.

I just don't know if this is what they're talking about or something else.

 

My car makes a small whistling/wind sound at very partial throttle like if you barely step on the gas. I mostly notice it on the highway, it's probably normal.

 

it just sounds like the intake sucking air in....i'd be able to tell better if i heard it in person but oh well xP

 

I also have this noise.
6.8K miles
Just like orginal thread starter. Its not a belt I know what a belt sounds like. Only after I shift into a new gear and it normally lasts only a few secs then its gone til I shift again. Sounds just like my perpetual brake squeal but much MUCH more quiet, you almost cant hear it. With the windows up you will never notice.

 

there is a TSB on this, they claim it's normal, it's the sound of air going by some tube or something. I forget - but it's up on this site if you search for it.

Scott (Mazsport) installed a check valve, and I haven't heard the noise since, so I think that gets rid of it. PM him, he sells them direct.

 

I don't have an 8 yet, but I have the same drumroll type whistling on my accord. This occurred after installing an after-market intake, and upon searching, they mentioned on some forums that it is a normal noise of certain intakes. It happens on a pretty precise range of low rpm (2.5k area), in every gear, while on about 5-10% throttle. I don't know if this helps, but it sounds very similar.
