sorry, I'm not trying to burn you dude, but it would be absolutely HILARIOUS if this was just the normal sound from your turbo spooling.

does it kick in right around 2000 RPMs and then go away when you let off of the gas?
is it LOUD, or just kind of there?
turbos do whistle a little bit. if your car has exhaust, or a high flow cat, or even an intake, you'll hear it more.

not trying to be a dick. just making sure.

i already suggested this and acetrebo tried to tell me i dont know what im talking about, ive only had 3 turbos go bad on me.

this guy seems to know nothing about cars, it could be his turbo just spoolin up, and if its going bad than it would be a lot louder of a noise.

I stand corrected. Whistling could be from many different things, so I was just guessing by the limited descriptions he gave.

Anyway, more than anything ateurv8, I was just giving you some crap because you are a 2.8.

Anyway, I was just trying to help, just as you were. Glad he had a warranty and got it fixed for nothing.

I admit, I was.....
