88,760 strange sound coming from underhood

Post by rmcmighty »

I am noticing that when i am accelerating i can here the normal little whistle or scream from the turbo but once i am actually boosting i get another little scream out from under the hood .... I really dont think its a belt because the only time i get the squeal or scream is when i am getting boost ?
any ideas are welcome and appreciated .
Thankyou
