High Pitch Whistle?

When i press the pedal down and start to get boost i get a high pitched whistle noise that gets louder the

more i press down the gas pedal. Soon as i let up it goes away. the sound is like a police whistle being

blown as hard as you can.

i have checked all hoses they look good

 
Have you done anything under the hood lately?? If so, start there first. Maybe there is a loose vacuum hose?

 
check the clamps connecting to your intercooler, especially under it. lot of boost going through there.

 
I had a high pitch whistle under boost in my legacy turbo, kinda sounded like normal turbo whine but much higher pitched. It didn't affect performance at first, but eventually did.

Turned out to be a crack in the Up Pipe just below the turbo.

 
it was not easy to find with the heat shields and all. I was able to see blackness on the bottom of the flange and could feel air moving it i got under and stuck my arm up while it was running.
