Default Dentist Drill or not?

I've searched, but I haven't really found any definitve answers. Here's my story.

Yesterday, I did a hard pull for about three miles. Fourth gear, hard load on and off throttle. At the end I heard a very, very high pitch noise. Almost not audible. This noise was not rpm or boost load specific.

Today in a parking garage I noticed a much more audible, lower frequency, boost and rpm specific noise. F*&^, sh&t. Must be the dentist coming in town. This noise is audible anytime I'm on boost. It is not very audible at a stand still without any object that reflects or amplifies the noise.

So, I am going to do a leak check tmrw. Is there any other way to determine what this is or should I be pulling together the parts do start my homebrew?

I appreciate your help and opinions.

Thanks guys.

If you can't hear it over the sound of the radio, it's not significant

Default When my Ko3s went the sound was not that loud---->

It was a loud noise, but that one in the link was ear piercing. My KO3s were not as high pitched when they went. Besides the squealing turbos on that car , it sounds incredible. How do I make mine sound like that?

Yep, mine isn't that loud, just much more audible through the entire rev band.
