Trans gurus. Last dirt drag I went to used my dhd lock up box for the first time and noticed at the track after my first pass that when I would spool the transmission area would have a loud whirring sound just happen to power brake it tonight and I heard it again loud and clear you can also hear something when you cut the truck off that is spinning and making a small rattle inside the transmission everything shifts great no codes converter locks up fine any input on this guys? Nothing but problems here lately suncoast 1058 with billet stator

Is there a possibility of the down pipe touching the firewall and the noise you're hearing is the turbo spinning? Mine was like that for a while, and while I didn't have the whirring, I DID have the spinning noise slowing down when I cut the truck off.

That sounds like an exhaust leak prior to the turbo or something turbo related on the exhaust aide

I bet the downpipe or exhaust is touching somewhere since the turbo is recent.

Kyle are you speaking of the little tab on the bottom where it mounts to the engine? Mines never been bolted there. I'm going to do some investigating today
