Was you using predominantly Avgas 100LL or Unleaded ?
After many years working on turbo engines Both Petrol and diesel, I have
had turbine`s go badly out of balance due to carbon build up,
They makes a loud whistling noise, But never enough to seize, At least
that's better than the waste gate seizing and causing a overboost,
