Hi, you guys might flame me for asking this, but what's that spool-like sound in an N/A VL. My bro's car has been making that noise since he bought it years and years ago. The engine's been rebuilt by a mechanic and he added some extra mods to it. This spool-like/whine sound is faint when you accelerate, is it just some factory item making the noise or something else?
Cheers

Something else Id say... could be a range of things however I doubt many of them are good.
Could have a leaky exhaust, low on p/s fluid, gearbox ready to die or ne of those gay 'turbo' exhaust tips
