02 Protege 5
I have a new sound in my car!
i have an 02' protege 5 with a t25bb turbo and some other things which arent important. but the sound is what i am posting about...

the sound is like a cross between a dying seagull and a creaky door opening. also when the car is cold, i get a ticking sound that sounds like detonation but one of my friends told me it was wastegate flutter. i am wondering if these two sounds are related. the squeek only happens when i am boosting and only between 2-4 psi. i am only boosting to 6psi. help me please
 
bump... i really want to find out what is wrong. if i have to get a new wastegate then i will, but at the same time, if i just have to tighten something then i would rather do that. any ideas?
