whistling noise

I have a 98 Eclipse RS. When I am accelerating between 55 and 65 I get a whistling noise. If I let off the gas pedal it stops, but when i get back on it it starts again. After around 65 it stops. I cannot tell where the noise is coming from. Please Help.

Re: whistling noise

Is the TB stock? A friend of mine has a Jeep TB on his, and it whistles at different throttle positions.

Yeah, I am pretty sure the throttle body is stock. Is this a major problem or should I just let it go until I get money to fix it.

yeah my rs does the same, about 4k and allthe way, but i found it cool, when i first got it my friend drove it for about 10 minutes and he said it was a turbo,i heard that it could be a really tiny hole in the muffler, but i don't mind it, sounds cool to me,
