    Hi everyone. I noticed there’s a strange sound when accelerating low rpm. It’s not clicking but almost like a whirring sound but it’s not a whine. It’s almost like an higher pitch sound. Anyone know what this is?

    Maybe the optional squirrel turbo?

    Just kidding. ;)

    it does sound like an idling turbo upon acceleration but quickly goes away funny enough
