[s-cars] Wife's car making ANOTHER noise!

In a normally aspirated car, that sort of noise can sometimes be an
intake manifold gasket that can vibrate if the pressure differential
between the outside and inside reaches a certain value.  It doesn't
need to leak much, just enough to get a part of the gasket buzzing.
This could be a similar event, and the leak is not enough to notice
under boost.  I would check the torque on the intake manifold bolts for
starters.
