Is the car throwing a CEL (Check Engine Light)? If so, you'll want to pull the code with an OBD scanner.

from my understanding when all of the 3 ACD lights turn on and stay on, while the screaming whining noise is present means the TransferCase is going bad or it's already bad. It could still be salvable check the fluid level on the TC, then change it with new one and check the old one for metal particles.

Did you check to see if your intercooler pipes didn't pop off?.

I think you are right about the "cuplink". The ADC lights all being on isn't good but is probably not related to the drive ability problem of the car. The noise may be air escaping.

If you're out of warranty, then don't take it to a dealership. Find a shop in your area that knows Evos and has a good rep.
