Yes, you missed something. Did you put the cai pipe, hoses and filter back on on tight? Can you rev your engine (or have someone rev it for you) while your under the hood and hear where it's coming from?

sounds

if it wheezes, it's ok, if it whistles, i've never heard it on mine. mine likes to shoosh once in a while when i first start it up and during low rpms. and it always queefs when i turn the ignition off.

Do you have the by-pass vave? Did you check all connections?
If all connections seem secure, have someone rev the engine whle you try to pinpoint the 'whistle' sound.
