Check the turbo. My car made a weird almost eerie "whoooooooooo" and it was a blown turbo.

Does the car build boost well?

 

[mikus]

what did it do before? Ie, is this the same parts and and a new noise, or did any parts change (and which ones)

 

the car will hold boost just fine, and i just bought the car so i really have no clue whats new and whats not.

Pull the inlet tube off and check for shaft play on the turbo. If I had to beat its time for a new turdo. Mine died a painful death after numerious passes at the track, my first visit with the car, that was a bad sign of things to come. Thing was it held 15psi fine just would smoke after a few times into boost. Drove it like that for a few weeks until the scream was ticking me off. The scream was the wheels eating into the housings.

where in chicago are you located? could be a bad turbo like everyone says could also be a fairly large leak. last year i had a large leak and the car would still boost well but make a horrible noise as well

Have you checked it out yet? What's the status?

Mine does this but only when I let off the gas /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

Do you have a Cyclone intake I heard that these can make that sound.

 

[14bCrazy]

Nope

??? No update?

A crushed stock BPV will make a high-pitched whistle at partial throttle. Mine did it around 3K rpm with zero boost.

 

[1990ggsxnj]

Why would it do that? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

 

the whistling went away randomly it must be the way i had the intake postioned i need to put dejon intake on

 

[1990ggsxnj]

LOL Yes, you always must upgrade!! I look for any excuse anyways /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
