yea, it's normal... i wouldn't compare it to a turbo, but the fist time i took my brother for a drive he asked if i had put a turbo on it, so i guess he thought it sounded like one... i think it's just the car sucking in lots of air... i have a k&n and removed the intake res. so you can really hear the sucking sound...

Whining noise.

Hello everyone, I drive a 2005 Cobalt automatic, I hear that noise also, I beleive it is from the tranny, I have read it is from the torque converter. I dont think its bad, I like the sound actually, gives the car a sporty sound when kicking down the accelerator.

Laters.

Its not the tranny, its simply the air being sucked in. End of Discussion
