Default Turbo.. Tie Fighter sound

I am getting a wierd loud "tie fighter" sound comming from my (I think turbo) when I get close to max boost. I am going to go check it out as soon as the engine cools, but does anyone have an idea what it could be (or what to go check)?

I guess you were right! I dont have Turbos

My losser @ss did not tighten a hose clamp after I installed my Rad.


Boys and girls make sure you always tighten all your hoses up after messing with your auto

I did sound cool thou
