maybe they added a supercharger? -__-

your belt is probably rubbing up against something, it only makes that noise when you start the car up right?

no it makes it at all time sounds like a supercharger lol when you hit the gas when the car is on netural you can hear it whine like its coming from the belts.. so im guessing the belts are to tight how would you know how tight or how loose a timing belt suppose to be ?

Your timing belt is too tight. Trust me, I took mine to a shop a long time ago and they tightened it (although they didn't ask me if I wanted them too). They told me it would stretch out over time, but it wont.

I have heard that when you buy a new timing belt, it will stretch out slightly. But just recently I was told that, the timing belt is pre-set, meaning as soon as you put it on, it should be good to go.

My advice, is give it a couple weeks. If it is still there, take it back and have them take it off, and put it on again normal.
