Hey y'all. I recently had the turbo on my '08 Forester XT replaced after the old turbo made a loud squeal before there was a clunk and I lost power going down the highway. Because I was out of town, the installation was by a mechanic I don't know.

The new turbo now makes a squeal too and I'm wondering if there was a fault with the installation or whether the noise is normal. I can't attach an audio clip unfortunately. But the squeal starts when the turbo kicks in at any speed, and then continues for as long as you accelerate. Once you take your foot off the accelerator, the high-pitched noise stops.

So, what do you think - dodgy install, normal, or something else?
