Nope we have no idea and you get to have the fun of finding it

Sorry. Might be easier to have someone or yourself outside the car listening when the ending is revved.

Also try spray soapy water or something.

If the wheel was damaged, it wouldn't even work.

It almost sounds like its squeeling out the side of a coupler or something.

Yeah so a chipped fin on the compressor wheel would make the turbo not work at all.
