does not sound like a turbo spool , more like a whistle at first i thought it was an air leak or the y pipe was bent but all looks fine

Get some one to jump on the accelerator whilst you try locate the sound.

Whistle will 99% be a boost leak.
Check and tighten everything up, otherwise bubble test to find the leak. First thing I would check is where the BOV bolts on.

Unlikely, never heard of that from a pw tmic before - if was found out to be the case im sure he would replace it for you at no cost to you.
Did you get the entire kit or just the tmic? Is the y-pipe all ok?

doesn't the 99 have a different flange?
