Default Strange sound at WOT...

Recently, I have noticed that when accelerating hard in first gear, when I get up around 5000+ rpms my engine has this really loud whine sound... It sounds almost like the same kind of annoying sound that a supercharger would make... I have no idea what could be causing it... I don't hear it with the windows up, but with the windows rolled down, I can hear it clear as day coming from the engine...

Anyone have any idea what might cause a sound like this?

Oh okay... Maybe I just haven't noticed it for a while... Because of my glasspacks exhaust... And I was cruising with teh windows down the other day, and I heard this really crazy sound from the engine...

Hehe, now that I think about it... Before I got the exhaust done, the engine was loud as fock... I guess I'm making a big deal of nothing...
