Definately do the seals, although if you have the WORKS throttle body yours should already have the high pressure seals. If you already have it apart just do everything seals and spray coating. The Dow Corning Moly lube is expensive, I went with the stuff Liqquid posted in his thread and it worked fine, although the Dow stuff is better IMO.

I also have a slight whistling noise, I believe its just from the airfilter though, it is definatley a suction whistle in my case, and the turbo is fine, so are the TB seals, and no boost leak. Post a clip, it really depends on the sound
