sounds to me like you have the death whine. They prob put the wrong fluid in your TC.

why do you say that. Alot of people say that the TC whine sounds like a supercharger whine. The same thing happend to me. Place that did my clutch put the wrong fluid in. For the first 300-500 miles it was fine. I got on it took it over 100 and when i started slowing down, i had the death wine coming from it. Only on decel though, not when i was giving it gas. He may have a messed up TC or i could be something else.

WOw this is a answer that i can answer. I had the same thing happen to me, its a boost leak right at the lower intercooler piping and the bottom of the turbo housing. Let me guess it still builds boost but it sounds like you have a kenne bell under your hood! You need to take off your lower intercooler pipe, find a belt sander and sand it back down flat. pm me with any futher questions.

Later

i hope evoreel is right... i used AMS manual oil and a little mix of the noslip crap also ams... umm... it's when i accelerate... and when it deccelarates it sounds like the turbo calming down but louder... i was also told it might be the drive train... like if i'm in 6th gear i keep the rpm at like 2.5 u hear it loud... or 5th gear at 3k... still loud... so someone please HELP!!!!!

yeah, I would also say it sounds like a boost leak rather then the TC. Hell my vaccum hose was off my BOV and it sounded like a supercharger, I thought the alternator or power steering pump was going out.
