I've found recently that when I'm using the accelerator, either to pick up speed or just keep at constant speed, I start hearing a very high pitched but quiet whistle. A forum I looked at said that it might be a crack in an air intake pipe.
Someone talked about it sounding like the sound of a supercharger whining, and posted this video saying the sound was at the 6 or 7 second mark:

However it's higher pitched that. It's literally as high as a whistle, but it's not extremely loud. I don't mind it, but I've noticed it's gotten more constant whenever I"m accelerating as opposed to just sometimes. Can this be a lead in to something breaking?
