Normally folks don't complain when they have weird "whoosh" sounds. I know I wouldn't. :D

BUT if we're not talking about a turbo here, and somehow I'm sure we aren't.... I'm not sure. Need more info. :(

It's not a turbo sadly =P Unless it's one of those under body turbos that route back to the manifold like I saw on f-body.org. It is almost like a metal on metal light scrape. It's @ 3krpm -+50rpm.
