I know this may seem like a stupid question if it's normal, but i've never noticed it until tonight.

There is a whistle coming from the front driver's side of the car when I accelerate/rev the engine. Not sure what it is, other than a suspiscion that it is the air intake. Could it possibly be a clogged filter?

Hmmmmm could be. Take it apart and check. Also make sure all the clamps are tight and that the intake hose isn't cracked.

mines do the same thing it could be a vacuume hose or one of your intake gaskets arent replaced properly leaving a small crack for air to come in causing the whistling noise

My 2000 Impala LS does that, it's ok, it's just the intake. It's not clogged or anything.
