Whistling sound from engine - '12 G37x

While driving with the windows open, I hear a high pitched whistle while coasting, but at idle. As soon as I give it the slightest bit of throttle, it goes away. It sometimes happens while in park. Here are the facts, hope someone can help:

-Just installed Takeda short CAI. I don't know if it was happening before I did the install
-used hypertech programmer when I installed the intake
-the sound continues for a second after I kill the engine
-it sounds like it's coming from the drivers side intake, but it's hard to pinpoint.
-it goes away if I cover the drivers side intake, but that could also be because the RPM changes.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Thanks RPG.

Maybe the Takeda wasn't a good choice. Couldn't use the included Rubber couplers because they were too short, had to replace the clamps because they kept loosening, now this annoying sound.

I had a good experience with them when i ordered the CAI and i got it for $350 brand new instead of the $420 MSRP
