Default need help with something...

well... on the way home, my car was making a huge whiss sound. well i dont know if its with every tc, but everytime pushing the pedal it has this little whiss sound like if it had a little turbo or something, which its cool, tho it was like that from day one. now its like 3 times louder and anoying, sounds like something is rubbing or breaking or not enough of something and it sqeals. if you guys know what i'm talking about, let me know i dont know what it is. i hope its not something huge. well at least what is the sound that it creates(the normal whis sound)? clutch? intake? Thanks

It's your air box/intake, all of ours do it. It shouldn't have gotten louder, thats the part I'm not sure about...

My car whistles when I get off the throttle.
it might be wistling while on the throttle too but I can't hear it because of the engine noise. hmm.. it definately shouldn't be getting louder.
