Slight whistling noise upon acceleration

Wondering if anyone has noticed this with their X1. Doesn't happen with a light tap, but when I accelerate moderately to hard I can hear some sort of a whistling sound until I let up. It's relatively faint and I have to have the music off to notice it. Anyone else experience this?

The turbo whistles a little as it spools up. You can also hear it spool down after you shut the engine off.

Lots of people pay good money for that whistling noise.
