Umm did you actually punch it, and take it up to 4500-6500 RPMs? You should hear it growl and slurp around that time :)
 
I just wrapped up my install a few minutes ago. I have a slight whistle right when I start forward and if I back off the throttle. Nothing annoying though. I love the nice rich sound the motor has once you hit the powerband. I know the gains are minimal, but it sounds a lot better now!
