    Is there a pronounced turbo whine you guys are hearing. I hear it when the window is rolled down. But sometimes it sounds like a squeal. Is the whine noticeable. My economist could be heard when I was in a parking garage but not when the window was down and on the road. Just curious what everyone is hearing. thanks

    I can hear the turbo spooling even with windows up and music playing. It’s pretty quiet though, but a pretty distinct noise if I try to listen for it.

    You guys have a better ear or more money than me. I've never heard the turbo. I'm sure, I guess it's kicked in. Just haven't been ticked off enough yet feel the need to floor it. I've become an elderly driver. Lol

    Ditto…maybe with younger ears I could hear it but not now. Hell, I can barely see it spool up on the boost gauge.

    I dunno if listening to an economist is a great idea. You’re either gonna hear all doom and gloom, or all unicorns and rainbows.

    Sorry, I have nothing of value to add to this thread, as usual. It just reminded me of this...
