Default started the car yesterday....

ZERO boost. Very loud "dentist drill" type sound when you try to drive it.

Default No. Car ran fine the night before!

Came out in the morning and had ZERO boost and a very loud sound that is the "dentist drill" sound. (I can hear it with the windows up and I have a brullen exhaust).

So it sounds like something actually broke and did not just wear out.


FWIW.
Car has 103,800 miles on it.

GIAX X chip, TIP chip,
FORGE DV
Samco TBB
Brullen exhaust.
and possible some other stuff I don't know about (bought the car used)

It put 280WHP/356WTQ a couple of weeks ago on the dyno.
