Yeah, I kinda expected ribbing, I've done the same myself in the past when someone has asked something similar, but I'm older and more irritable now
Picture:
Note the airfilter is now near the headlamp lid and the pipework follows the wing (in an attempt to lengthen it and reduce the noise.

yeah reduce the whine, It must be possible as my old mans car barely murmers (granted it's a smaller blower spinning slower but still I don't expect silence, just a nice reduction).

Look up a helmholtz resonator (spelling??) . Ever noticed some stock intakes have a random tube that leads to nowhere and dead ends? This is a helmholtz resonator. It cancels out a specific frequency very well. If you do your research you will find some simplified equations which will give you tube length based on wavelength. Of course you would need to know the frequency that the noise is at before you could cancel it.
