I haven't really noticed any change in noise tbh? Is it intake noise or engine noise?

Intake noise, it was pretty much silent when installed but now there is a noticible noise.

I'm wondering whether i might have a boost leak.

Opt for Mikalor clamps Ryan, far better and more reliable than standard Jubilee clips and you'll rarely get boost leaks

Yes, after about 300-500. It was very quiet to start with and now whines as I was expecting it to. But it's sounds like the belt and pulleys rather than leakage. I've noticed the fraying on the belt which was referred to in the Install Guide so assumed it was friction noise. Now watching for escalation in pitch/tone.

Ohhh, not like that. Mine went from nearly silent to your first video. It doesn't sound like the second video at all.

Right, I've taken the intake off, there is no play in the shaft and oil it circulating fine when it's running. Anything else worth checking?
