Default turbo

lastnight i was cruising around town at about 35-40 in 4th gear when i put it to the floor go lay a little smoke, a few mins later i noticed my turbo was alot louder than is usually is and its still like that. it now has one hell of a whistle at idle and through low rpms. it doesnt really sound like a cummins turbo whistle its almost more like a psd whistle. what could of caused this? thanks.

does it still have good boost? it could be a boost leak or exhaust leak, you should also pull the intake tube off and check the side play and in and out play of the compressor wheel
