    it should not.. the whistling noise is from the air box.

      Read this topic again: http://www.spykerowner.com/forum/tec...ot-loaded.html

      And now I see that the two noises don't have anything to do with each other.

      The gearbox is changed for this reason?

      The second issue is that it makes a short squeal when you shift gears. This sounds a lot like a rapper scratching a record for about a tenth of a second. It is very distinct and it almost certainly metal on metal.

        This is incorrect. The whistling is NOT from the airbox. The whistling sound i am experiences is most likely from the pinion gear within the gearbox.

          I'm glad you found it. there is nothing more annoying than a whistling sound or a rattle you cannot fix. It gets under your skin

            Finality to this issue guys. The change in gearbox got rid of the noise. Also, the new ECU settings are spectacular. Along with this I had Johan do a couple of other small things. I can now see the blinker light in the dash. Good stuff...

              That is a huge improvement. I hated that the blinker and high beam lights were covered by the steering wheel. For me these issues got solved when I installed the propeller steering wheel.
