wastegate cracked open?
this noise my truck is making is driving me insane. and it now drives my turbo-expert-friend insane too. he cant think of what it is either. its this boost related whirr-singing noise that follows boost. it cant really be heard at wot. so im wondering if maybe the wastegate is not fully shut and its cracked open a hair. im thinking maybe it would cause this strange and somewhat embarassing noise. any thoughts? took air filter tube off turbo and rode around for a minute. the noise was still present, just muffled by the louder turbo whistle.
thanks,
jeremy

Check for cracks or loose bolts.

My friends truck sounded like the fan was going out and it was a 24 valve. The truck had not power. He took it to the Dealer of his choice and after a good ( quick) check they reflashed his computor. Any way after hearing him saying how bad the cummins engine was, no power , ect. I went over his house and tighten up the clamps on the innercooler, like I suggested in the first place.
