Default Whirring from engine-normal?

I've noticed this whirring noise coming from what seems the engine. The noise gets higher pitched as the rpms rise. I was just wondering if this noise is normal or if its the intake system.
Thanks.

Sounds like intake to me, but do you have the stock one.
try posting up a video if you can hear it on the video camera

Does it sound like a roots/twin-screw blower? Mine does that and I'm pretty sure it is one of the tensioners (it became even louder when I put an UD pulley on).
