I've noticed that when i floor the car in any gear it makes a high pitch squeling noise and sounds like a rubbery noise from the engine bay. It only does it when i get above 4000rpm and the turbo is at full boost.

The following link takes you to a video of the last cruise where my car is the last one to leave the car park (silver R33) and you can here the sound. Its not tyre squeeling either.

Wondering if any of you guys could shed some light on a possible problem or solution thanks

Yeah I would say boost leak, or a gasket on the turbo.

I had a gasket on the turbo go just last week.. It didnt sound exactly like that, but it was another high sitched squealing sound (similar to turbo induction noise but louder)...

it was only $45 for the part, but it was a turbo-out job...

Cheers for all your replies guys!!

Ill check the hoses out, should i start the engine up and rev it up to get some boost and listen for leaks?

Ive heard of using soapy water on hoses to see bubbles is this also a good idea?

Thanks guys for answering my NOOB QUESTIONS
