    Any idea what this sound is?

    So I was driving after installing the srm intercoolers, and my upper radiator hose popped off coolant everywhere. I also noticed I forgot to take the cap off of the y pipe where the pancake valve goes, because I was doing a boost leak test. (Headbang). What damage can that do... It over heated, then i got home. It got 1 tick to the "h", and the red light came on. Then I took it for a drive, and it makes this sound now.... Fuck I also have the 2 rubber fan shrouds off, I forgot to put back on. Taking a better look at it tomorrow morning. It drives fine now just makes that noise. Hope it's not a turbo it's a loud whine sound if you listen closely. Once the psi reaches about 15-20. I have a stage 2+ tune cars 80k miles. 6 speed...

    It sounds like you have a loose clamp at one of the intercooler hoses. That sounds like mine after I installed my SRM side mounts it was a high pitched noise like that. I pressure tested the system and found the passenger lower house clamp at the intercooler was tight enough causing the boost leak and noise.

    Yup had the exact same noise on my practically brand new k24s, thought it was a bad turbo at first, pressure tested and the hoses were squealing like crazy! Tightened up and all good to go! Glad yours was the same problem
