Does it make the sound only at full speed or always? You could try having a buddy slowy move foward while you walk next to it and listen so you can tell where the sound is coming from.

Also since u just got ur 3.73 u probably were listening for noises and then came accross this one, not knowing it was there before. Does it make the noise while its just sitting still or does it have to be moving. A CAI will make noise all the time when the engine is running, and so if it only does it when its moving then i would have it checked out.

Yeah i would get that checked out cuz u dont want something to be wrong with ur engine and just ignore it thinking it is just wind resistance. From what you describe it doesnt sound like the CAI hope this helps.
