whistle sounds like a vac leak (they scream like mad if they are from a vac line port, otherwise they are mellow if they are a gasket). Double check all the vac nipples, theres many.

Its a vac leak, more specifically I bet it is coming from in between the manifolds. Either the LIM -> UIM, or UIM-> Plenum. Make sure you scraped all the old gasket material off (ALL !!) before you install new gaskets. I had the exact same problem, took me forever to figure out what it was.
