I get a constant whine from the turbo that doesn't change pitch regardless of rpm or boost pressure. I think it may be a leak but I'm not sure.

is this sound normal??

Sounds like a bit of an exhaust leak. My truck was leaking just after the turbo where it bolts to the downpipe and it was whistling like that. Of course it was a diesel so was easy to see black smoke pouring out of the hole when i revved it up. Yours might be a little more difficult to pinpoint but try squirting soapy water on some of the joints before it heats up and you'll see it bubbling if you are leaking
