Hey everyone my sho started making a whining noise when I go above 4000 rpms would like some help hoping it's not the turbo but that's what i would think it is. The noise is come from the left side if the engine bay. The car has 110000 miles on it. Also here is a video of the noise
thank you for the help

Sounds a bit like a pulley bearing. Maybe alternator or idler/tensioner pulley?
Don't know what a "whining" turbo sounds like, so cannot comment on that.

Sounds like the wheel is dragging maybe? Check the axles, wheel bearings on both sides. Sound travels.

I’d like to know if you found the problem. I have a 2010 SHO and mine just started making the same noise. I was thinking a pulley.
