New T3/60 Turbo swap what a difference quick ???

I just got my Garrett t3/60 turbo back from my turbo shop.
They fitted my stock Saab turb with a larger 60 trim wheel.
What a huge difference it makes. THey kept the original compressor housing and just bored it out to accomadate the larger compressor wheel. It is so MUCH FASTER!!! Totally worth the upgrade. Only $170.00 for new wheel, gaskets, machine the compreassor housing etc. If anyone wants their info just reply on the board and I can get it for you.
Only question I have is the turbo is making a whistling sound. Like you hear when it spools up. Just seems much louder than my stock 45 trim wheel made. Is this a common sound? Everything was hooked up correctly from what I can see. I am putting a MBC in-line with the wastegate silicone line to allow for much quicker spool up. Will keep you posted to see if it is worth it. Now all I need is Jak's stage 2 chip. This turbo spools up and holds boost all the way to redline and fuel cut.
Any suggestions as to why my car makes that sound is appreciated.
