mine does but its not a loud-bothering whine.
youll have to get out of the car and kneel down at the rear tire to hear it.

TTP Engineering did my first email reflash and a good one at that at the time, but now with the FPgreen, 780cc inj, and alky kit, it's time to step it up a notch!

A quick mod list:

FP EvoGreen Turbo w/upgraded Wastegate
Megan Racing TBE
Injen hard Upper and Lower IP and Intake (K&N Filter)
Turbosmart dual port BOV
Hallman PRO RX MBC
ACT MB7 HDSS Clutch
Walbro 255l Pump
780cc PTE injectors
SMC/Buschur Alky Injection kit w/M10 nozzle
GSC 272i/264e cams
NGK BP7ES plugs, Have BP8ES plugs avail.
AEM UEGO wideband AFR
GReddy TT

Should be a fun car!

if the trip from ND to FL wouldn't be so long, I'd be there in a beat! Thanks for the great flash!
